Beth is happy to provide supply preaching when worship leaders are absent. She will work with your other worship leaders to plan the service, Tell the Scripture, and preach. 

Frequently the Telling of an entire story, such as the story of Holy Week from Mark 11-15 or the Christmas story from Luke 1 through Luke 2, is just right for the entire Scripture and sermon time.

Telling the entire arc of a story in one event helps the hearers enter the story and understand the whole story related in Scripture, which is usually chopped up into little bits to fit the scripture-reading attention span of today's listeners. Attention spans for performed stories are much longer!

"Thanks for your lively and lovely storytelling method of the scriptures ...  I was moved to tears."

"A breath of fresh air!"
     "Everybody had great things to say about your visit here!"

"Wow! When our pastor said you were going to preach in our contemporary service, I had my doubts -- but I was wrong. It was wonderful. Thank you!"
