In this episode, Brian and Nick step into the same activity our students did on Wednesday night — retelling a biblical story from a personal point of view. Students were challenged to step inside the shoes of someone in Scripture, pay attention to what they saw, felt, feared, or hoped for, and notice how God was at work through it all.

Brian and Nick each choose a different character and recount a familiar passage through first-person storytelling. The goal: help listeners see the beauty, tension, and grace of God’s Word in a fresh way.

What We Did This Week

• Students were placed into groups and assigned a passage.
• Each group picked a character from the story — or were assigned one — and retold the entire scene from that character’s vantage point.
• This required imagination, observation, and reflection on how God moved in real human lives.
• It also helped students see that Scripture isn’t flat — it’s saturated with emotion, conflict, hope, and the steady faithfulness of the Lord.

Brian and Nick decided to jump in and do the same exercise… on the mic.
