The exciting ending of Job's story. See who gets smacked down and who gets props!
Yeah, that was dorky. I really shouldn't try to use cool words. But this week's episode is great, and super well retold by the team of EH and MF. Enjoy!
What are those pictures?
- The images with each episode are the symbols that the students come up with to summarize that week's episode. We stick the symbols on the wall in chronological order when we meet to story so that we see where the episode fits into the big story of the Bible.
Why aren't the stories written out?
- Here's the deal. If you learn a story from a piece of paper, when you tell it, it's more like a memorized speech than a story that you're telling from your heart. In your words. With your personality. What would you rather listen to?

Episode 7 Destruction
Here's Destruction, this week's installment in Abraham's story.We laughed at the beginning of the story because someone's question was answered as soon as the story started.
Episode 6 Three Visitors
KD and NP tell an episode together, going back and forth to get the dialogue straight. We're finding that dialogue is one of the trickiest things to retell accurately in an episode. Retelling together is absolutely the way to go to get it right (and is, by the way, how the stories stay accurate in mmmBELLYmay land).
Episode 4 Abraham Promise
I tweaked episode 4, Abraham Promise, just a little bit after we learned that episode together. This is the tweaked version.
Episode 3 Disobedience
Here's the third episode, Disobedience. CC has a fantastic high energy retelling. After you learn an episode, this is the way to retell it-in your own words, in your own style.

Episode 2 People
Here's People, the episode from the second week. I can't find the student tellings, so it's just me telling it in my apartment with the ceiling fan going, sorry!
Southfield Community Church
Welcome!
- These are the Biblically accurate stories, or episodes, that we're using with junior high students at SouthField Community Church. These are just rough recordings of the leader telling the episode to the group, and also of students retelling them. They're lightly edited to take out umms and stuff like that, but they're not pretty studio recordings. Absolutely not for playing for a group to listen to, they're just tools for people to learn the stories in order to tell them live. Click on the gray bar to listen. Enjoy!
