Discovering Credentialed by Story

Picture
For the next year after their meeting, Pete and Wendy dedicated themselves to the writing and publication of their book Equipped to Bless: Finding Relevance in the Stories of Your Life. During that time, they discovered the power that could be unlocked by the process of creative story. The book provides an interesting insight into story creation and personal story analysis, and combining it with the process of creative story, the concept of the Creative Story Project was formed. Creative story encourages the use of imagination but also leads to browsing the library of one's life stories. It provides salutary opportunities for those interested in enlightenment, education, or entertainment. And it works! Here's Pete's story, elicited through Wendy's questions during the writing of the book.

"I have groused for years that I should have earned my Doctorate in English and become a professor in a small New England college. I love to teach, and I kept thinking the world had passed me by. I began my quest for the answer to Wendy's request by thinking of the teaching I had done over the years. I was currently substituting in a local high school as well as teaching Adult Sunday School. In fact, I had taught in several Senior High Sunday School classes over the years. I also remembered that when I had my own business in process control, I had on several occasions taught technicians how to install and program our equipment. Gee, prior to that I had been involved with Boys Scouts and had been involved in District Training. The crown jewel in this string of events was the fact that in Boot Camp in the Navy, I had been selected Educational Petty Officer. Putting it all together told me very clearly that I had always been a teacher! I had nothing to grouse about! Enlightenment of the best kind!"

Story - beautiful, funny, inspiring, healing, exciting, sad, short or long - is the stuff by which our lives are defined. We truly believe that by identifying who you are or have been will help define what you will become and how you will make a difference in your life and the lives of those around you.  We are dedicated to unlocking the power of story.
