A Commitment to Listening and Sharing: How Stories Form and Guide our Action

What role do stories play in your faith tradition? How do they connect us to one another, and how do they guide our action in the world?

We discussed these questions and more in the following conversation that took place in March 2022 on our first Interfaith Action principle of storytelling. Dr. Clark Gilpin, Professor Emeritus at the University of Chicago Divinity School, provided a reflection on storytelling, followed by group discussion on the importance of listening to and telling our stories in a way that builds community and leads to faith based action.

We hope you enjoy the following conversation - thanks for listening.
