Game of Thrones

Holy Week and ‘Game of Thrones’: hospitality and welcome when our ‘winters’ inevitably come

How ironic that the final season of “Game of Thrones” debuted on Palm Sunday, when Christians remember how people welcomed Jesus and hailed him as the Messiah, though all the while, winter was coming.

Embracing the power of story

We share a new series in BNG’s Storytelling Projects about Southeast Kentucky as part of our "Resilient Rural America" theme.

"The families that I work with are not hopeless. Sometimes they feel helpless, but everyone needs a little help sometimes."
Poverty is not part of your culture, character or identity.
The challenges of life in southeast Kentucky merely augment the effects of the natural misfortunes we all face.

Terrified yet courageous in the face of violence, Mountain Moms survive together

We created Storytelling Projects because we believe stories, rooted in the Jesus Story, have the power not only to inform but to transform people and communities. They can be sources of spiritual insight, imagination, creativity and hope for all who seek justice and mercy.
