I’m a sucker for a good story. 

I know you are, too. We can’t help it. God hardwired it into our brains. Functional MRIs show how our brains respond to stories (versus information)—more areas of the brain light up and with greater intensity. And even newer research has shown something fascinating: our heartbeats seem to synchronize when we hear a story at the same time, in a shared experience. 

How. Cool. Is. That?!

While this is obviously relevant for my work with speakers in crafting their content, I think there’s a treasure here for followers of God, as well.
