Discovering Paradise:
A New Way to Dive Deeply into Stories

Donation: $5 – $45

This workshop takes a particular method of understanding, questioning, and imagining new paths to stories that are meant to be told orally. In the workshop, Jim presents the model (based on the PaRDeS model of text study), and then works with the participants to apply it to a rich story. This work is done both in full session and in breakout sessions.

Participants leave with the facility of using the model, a deeper understanding of the story, and variations of it that they have crafted that are suitable for retelling.
