Have you ever wished that you could have interviewed Queen Elizabeth, the apostle Paul, Churchill, or Martin Luther King? So, do it.
Here's a little exercise I use in both secular and Christian writing classes. Choose a character from the history. Write out a list of a few questions for that character. Then put yourself into the shoes of that character, and answer the questions in the style of that character.
A variation of this activity is to choose a character from one of your stories and interview that character. This can help give you some insight into your characters.
Another variation is to work on this with a partner. One of you prepares the questions, and the other writes the answers in character.
