The Last Module “Mission: Sharing the Story of Jesus”

 

Dr. Nati

We began the last module ‘Mission: Sharing the Story of Jesus’ facilitated by Dr Natividad B. Pagadut, the resource person. She facilitated the module for four days from May 18th to 21st.

     In History and mystery there are full of stories. Our life is unimaginable without stories. Many at times stories tell us who we are and how they connect us with our fellow human beings. Through stories we explore our lives deeper within ourselves. We might have heard from our story tellers that stories can play a vital role in forming the human communities. Dr Natividad B. Pagadut, our resource person of ‘Mission: Sharing the Story of Jesus Christ,’ said that human experience is one of the fundamental in telling the stories. When the stories emerge from the human experience they transform the peoples’ lives. The module was very interesting because she explored the topic from her own experience with Jesus and applying the stories of Jesus to day-to-day life.

     Do we have the experience with Jesus like Mother Mary, St. Paul, Blessed Mother Theresa and like other people? If so do we share our experience with others in order to enrich our own experience; does the story of Jesus transform our lives? Such questions brought us the importance of telling the story of Jesus Christ in our day to day life. How do we know about Jesus? In this four days sections our primary sources are the four gospels. Through Gospels we know that Jesus is a story-teller. As a rabbi, a teacher, his favorite method of instruction is telling the stories in the form of parables, insightful vignettes that revealed the depths of God’s Reign (Basilea).
