Church is loud.

Loud in that church is filled with stories.

Loud in that church is filled with images.

Regarding stories

-          Confession : stories of a person

-          Prayer : stories of person to God

-          Hymn : stories of person to God and person to person.

-          Reading bible: stories from God to person also person to person.

Images  

-          Direct representation of stories from Bible (diorama)

-          Or re-creation of atmosphere associated with the images (nostalgia of the stories)

Speaking personal stories out loud, whether in type of confession or of casual conversation, is a way to relieve from burden of life.

Listening other’s prayer and stories is another way to think about one self.
