Imagination Alert

Why are we so starved for better stories? Can we do anything but just sit by and watch generations lose legends and heroes? Dominic de Souza of LegendFiction shares fantastic insights from his perspective as a leader in the Catholic and Orthodox storytellers’ community. You’re invited into a conversation relevant for all Catholic communicators about: * Why is the imagination so important to how God created us? * How might a person or society’s familiarity with storytelling relate to unhealthy interpretations of Christianity? * How can we tell & enjoy stories while retaining our values? * Where does our storytelling crisis stem from, and how can we recover our cultural imagination? * A new, online convention for Catholic & Orthodox fans of fiction storytelling Connect with Dominic, learn more about LegendFiction… and sign up for LegendHaven — hope to see you there! — at https://legendhaven.com. Read about a Catholic Servant of God who used dragons in his work at my other project, The Inspired Life: Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. - Philippians 4:8-9 What’s Next… Did this episode inspire you?
