Sometimes sharing a story can seem a little daunting - and at times, many of us don't consider our own stories worth telling. Yet over the years, the team at Tales of the Unexpected, or TOTU for short, have seen that inspiration and encouragement are more often than not found in the day-to-day experiences of ordinary people. TOTU is an opportunity for everyday people to express a part of their lives, a snapshot of faith, or quite simply, an encounter of God - and that's always worth talking about.

A portion of these stories are told by friends, colleagues and people around us in videos on the main page. We believe this should only be the beginning of the sharing of unexpected stories in everyday life - and through TOTU, you can share your own story either as a video blog, a short story or a quick thought. For more on that, read on.
