God Sized Stories
by Craig Worrall
We all love a good story. That is why we digest them in so many different mediums: Books, Movies, Television, Video Games, and so much more! Stories draw us in and during the best of them we sit on the edge of our seats. Through stories we can learn lessons, feel emotion, and make bonds with other people.The greatest stories are the ones that God orchestrates in our lives. We all have a story to tell and that is what this podcast is all about. I am going to sit down with people and record their God Sized Stories. These stories will be 10-15 minutes long. Which make them perfect to fit in to any part of your day.
