For many of us, Bible stories made an early impression in our lives. These stories gave us our first glimpses of God at work in history and introduced us to ordinary people whom God inspired and empowered to do extraordinary things. When we later began reading the Scriptures for ourselves, it was like reconnecting with old friends.
In thousands of oral cultures worldwide, stories are the most powerful way to communicate wisdom. For people still without the Scriptures written in their language, Bible stories are often the first introduction they have to biblical truth.
