Religion is a story. Not just one story, but many stories brought forth to explain the world and our place in it. Throughout our history, the political — the structure that governs human society — and the religious — the structure that governs the creation story — have often been in an uneasy dialogue and struggle for power. Every human life and every human society is commissioned to create a workable story between the secular and the spiritual. Storycatchers accept a responsibility to preserve all of the stories, to ensure that generations to come can choose their own religious story.
