Epic Telling Guidelines

If you are selected to be an Epic Storyteller you will be asked to adhere to these guidelines:

Learn your story well in advance of the Gathering so that it flows naturally and you are able to tell it at a reasonable pace.

Use the New Revised Standard Version as your base scriptural text.

Be mindful that Epic Telling is a communal event. Make sure your story will fit into the performance as a whole and be mindful of our need to keep the entire Epic Telling to a reasonable time-frame.
