'How wonderful, a resource that actively promotes inclusion and thinks carefully about how to enable this so you are equipped to do it.'Jonathan Bryan, author of Eye Can Write; A Memoir of a Child’s Silent Soul Emerging 'I am so happy that this book wants to tell the Big story of the Bible. I love that it uses Easy Read as well to simplify it.'Heidi Crowter, Advocate for Down Syndrome 'Telling the Big Story is a fantastic resource for communicating just that: the big story of the Bible. Everything you need to tell that story in 60 minutes in a local church context, involving the differing gifts of an entire congregation, is here. While the script itself is impressive in its accessibility, the surrounding resources contain answers to those inevitable questions one asks when using someone else’s idea—and believe me, that’s rare! Lucy Marfleet’s passion for communicating the Bible and pointing to the God who is revealed in its pages is everywhere in this wonderful book. I warmly commend it; it will bring the Bible to life wherever it is used.'The Rev Canon James Blandford-Baker Specifications Size: 297 x 210 x 9mmWeight: 400gPage count: 127Format: Paperback BookPublished: 2025ISBN: 9781838582104
