Story Bible Trainer
Description
The Story Bible Trainer teaches nationals and expatriate missionaries how to minister and plant churches using the Story Bible. When at home, staff members in this role train by engaging in local storying ministries in their community. Trainers usually do not work directly with unreached people groups, but they train those who do.
Since they work directly with staff and volunteers in the field, Story Bible Trainers also set up new strategies and field-level partnerships inside and outside of Campus Crusade for Christ. They work to create storying movements wherever they go.
