Biblical Orality
One of the core convictions for our family is that God brings about transformation in the human heart when people encounter Jesus through God’s Word. But how does the church make disciples today of people who either cannot read or who just do not like to read? After twenty years of being involved in working alongside the church in Uganda, we still believe God loves to encounter people through His Word. For our family, orality and tools such as oral Bible storytelling have become strategic means of helping people access and engage the Scriptures so they can encounter Jesus Christ.
As global orality catalysts, we have the privilege of helping others experience orality, grow in their understanding of orality, and consider how oral strategies could be applied in their ministry context. We do this by developing resources, facilitating trainings, and helping World Gospel Misson missionaries and other partners network among those interested in utilizing oral strategies such as oral Bible storytelling to make disciples for Jesus.
Currently, we are based in Scotland, and working with WGM in partnership with OMS. We thank Jesus for the opportunity to help other people, whether locally here in the UK or globally, encounter God through His Word.
Our family deeply values your prayers and partnership.
