The founder of Epic Christian Academy, Kevin Reagey, shares how his school brings Kingdom education to life, using story to disciple. As Kingdom educators, our goal is the same for ourselves and our students. We want to help them grow in their knowledge and awareness of God, and to understand who they are created to be and what they are created to do. At Epic Christian Academy, we use the concept of ‘story’ as a framework for discipleship. ‘Story’ is how we teach them about who they are, about who God is, about what is possible. In ‘Using Story to Disciple’, we’ll talk about: the four main characters in every story, the four main parts of every story, and the four core beliefs that affect it all. We’ll also talk about some of Epic’s rhythms and traditions that sponsor our culture of H.E.R.O.E.S. as examples of using ‘story’ in practice.
