5.0 out of 5 stars Loved This DVD!, February 16, 2010

This review is from: Convergence- Breaking the Ice: Learning to Share Our Stories (DVD)

I have been familiar with Donald Miller and his books, so I was intrigued about the Convergence DVD. I was not aware of Phyllis Tickle, but now I am a huge fan. It was a pleasure listening to her talk about story since she has lived such a full life. I watched the DVD with some friends and it created great conversations about each of our stories, and things I didn't even know about my friends story and faith. Great DVD! Cant wait to watch the others.

2.0 out of 5 stars Seemed to Lack Substance, February 25, 2010

This review is from: Convergence- Breaking the Ice: Learning to Share Our Stories (DVD)

The video was entertaining in that I found myself listening to two expert story tellers, but it lacked a certain kind of substance.

I noticed the lack of substance when Ms. Tickle made the comment that people take no "political risk" when they share their story to others. And by political she meant that it would cause no social harm or risk of being ostracized. I respect her opinion, but I just know that is not a true statement.

I think the reason we dont share our stories more often is that there is such a risk, especially in the Christian crowd, of facing these judgements once people know some of the choices we have made.

Reading the previous review on here, I totally agree that there are so many valuable stories waiting to be heard, but it seemed for me that this DVD didnt invite me to share mine with anyone new. Sorry!
