The Backstory Trailer

Welcome to The Backstory, a special series from Future of Faith. In each episode, we take a look behind the scenes of the National Storytelling Initiative on Christian Faith and Life, sharing wins, struggles, and lessons learned as we build a community of storytellers. We explore what it means to platform others' voices, the responsibilities of asking questions and operating behind a camera, and how to invite the full humanity of communities into narrative change. Through real stories and imagination, the series reflects on how local, relational storytelling can shift cultural perceptions of faith and the church today.
