One of the Catholic Voices principles of civil communication is ‘show, don’t tell’.

This foundational principle of good writing applies to communication generally. People prefer stories to lectures and are more convinced by experience than abstract argument. Stories were one of the chief ways Jesus chose to communicate. Instead of telling his listeners that ‘God loves them’, he told them the story fo the Prodigal Son. Stories seem to have a way of incarnating truths into the minds and hearts of listeners in a way that merely stating truths lacks.

For our third CV Connect Webinar, we are joined by Meg Hunter-Kilmer a full time lay evangelist to share stories of how the Church responds to crisis, both past and present.

This webinar will give you a bank of stories to share, from the lives of saints and from things happening today, that will inspire faith, foster hope, and increase charity.
