How Ancient Stories Can Improve Our Modern Lives
Saturday, May 20, 2023
6:00 - 8:00 pm
$40.00 Event Fee
How can tales written over 3000 years ago in a faraway place still influence our ecology, politics, and sexuality?
How can we utilize these epic stories to improve our lives?
What is it about these stories that can heal or kill?
For centuries the bible has been kidnapped by individuals who used it to control populations. It’s time to reclaim these humorous, mischievous, and enlightening stories and apply them to our own lives.
We will shed light on the lessons these timeless stories teach us:
- Adam & Eve – How an LSD trip isn’t the same as enlightenment.
- The Book of Ruth – A short book that might have been written by a woman
- David’s Forbidden Loves – Denim Jeans and how your imperfections are what make you perfect.
- Jesus’ Soul Mates – How selfless sacrifice can change the world.
The workshop includes storytelling, PowerPoint presentations of biblical art, as well as entertaining activities such as bible charades, reenactments of biblical scenes, and guided meditations using the Hebrew alphabet.
The stories of the bible are woven around the names of heroes and heroines and in the workshop, you will discover the symbolism and myth behind your own name.
What is your epic story?
Participants will receive an authentic Kabbalistic Red String from Israel as well as “Storytelling the Bible,” a companion booklet filled with information, artwork, and examples of Biblical archetypes in modern culture.
