Istoria is a Greek word meaning ‘story’. It refers to any account of connected events, presented to a reader or listener in a sequence of written or spoken words, or in a sequence of (moving) pictures.
The invention of the printing press by Johann Gutenberg in 1448 was heralded as one of the greatest inventions of the last thousand years. History was changed forever as through the printed page stories could be told. When the television came to market in the late 1940’s, it too had a resounding affect on how stories were told to the world.
Those who had a voice through the printed page and television were few, but today with the advent of the Internet and social media, everyone has an opportunity to tell their story. But how can we get people to hear us through all the clutter? How can our voice be heard above the fray? This can be the greatest hour for the church to tell the greatest story of all, but it will require us to learn best practices to seize the moment.
