Messy Parables by Martyn Payne
Coming up with craft and activity ideas to explore a Bible story is one thing; but when it comes to sharing that story in the gathered celebration, many Messy Church leaders struggle to find the right language and approach. The parables that Jesus told intrigued, inspired and engaged the crowds in his day, combining everyday imagery with surprising twists that prompted all ages to wonder and discover the treasures of the kingdom of heaven for themselves. This resource aims to recapture that storytelling style for Messy congregations today.
Martyn Payne is part of BRF’s Messy Church team, visiting Messy Churches up and down the UK, listening to the stories of how Messy Church is developing, sharing good practice and bringing encouragement. Author of Creative Ways to Tell a Bible Story (BRF, 2013), he has a background in Bible storytelling and leading all-age worship, and is passionate about the blessing that comes when generations explore faith together.
