“The experience of doing story work with Dean has been profoundly impactful on my life and ministry. I thought I had processed my story. I have been to therapy and worked with a coach for years, but I have never experienced what I did until getting into one of the most significant moments of my life to see how it has shaped my life so clearly. Doing story work has also shaped how I see God at work in the world.”
