Picture this: your faith journey as a natural conversation

Picture this: your faith journey as a natural conversation

Faith Pictures is a new resource from Church Army to help Christians of all traditions talk about their own story of faith. Over six sessions, designed for small groups, participants explore their personal journey and discover a language through which they can express their faith to others.

Each session builds on the previous one and helps us see where God has been present in our lives, how we can talk about that confidently, and how God is active in the world and wants us to join in. The sessions are:

1. Opening the Conversation
2. The Power of the Ordinary
3. Traveller’s Tales
4. Talking Pictures
5. Companions on the Journey
6. Hidden Opportunities

Each session is made up of four parts:

• Discover – a 3 to 4-minute video introducing the topic
• Dive In – an activity to help the group to start thinking about the topic.
• Going Deeper – exploring the ideas behind the topic
• Draw near – a pattern of prayer to help the group reflect on what has been talked about and how to apply it

‘Faith Pictures is really accessible, enjoyable and an easy way for us as individual Christians to begin to think about how we share our faith story,’ said Rt Rev Stephen Cottrell, Archbishop of York.

‘The course is great at giving you the tools to share your faith, whether you have just become a Christian or have been one for years,’ said course participant Sandra Harvey. ‘It shows you how you can easily connect with people and use things that are personal to you. If they mean something to you then, as you talk about them, other people can relate to them as well.
Being part of a small group works really well, as you get different perspectives on things. I definitely learned from the others in my group.’
