New Spoken Word Series HALL OF FAITH Brings Biblical Figures of History to Life for Young People
We are excited to announce the release of ‘Hall of Faith’, SU Scotland’s new creative video series that uses spoken word to introduce young people to real figures of faith from history. They are portrayed not as distant religious heroes, but as people who faced genuine struggles and joy.
Each episode sets the scene for a different character, helping young people connect with them as real people who lived real lives. This leads to the core question the series continually asks: What does it actually mean for me to be a person of faith?
The series is built around creative storytelling and spoken word performance, giving the material a distinctive tone that stands apart from more traditional teaching formats. Each film is paired with a wraparound Bible study resource, allowing young people at youth groups or SU Groups to dig further into the life of each character after watching.
Script Writer, Callum Keys, said:
“Hall of Faith was such an exciting project to work on. We can often struggle to see the full picture as we read the Bible. The spoken words are designed to bring the stories and characters to life in a way young people can feel part of, and sense the emotion of what is happening... to walk in the shoes (or sandals!) of the heroes of faith.”
