    Ep. 4.8 - On Performing Scripture, Emotional Hermeneutics, and Orality with Gerhard Marx

    Gerhard Marx has been on a thirty-year plus journey with orality. With passion and enthusiasm, he tells the story of how God led him into orality via prayer and radio. But having been deeply influenced by the Hebrew Bible (what most of us know as the Old Testament), Gerhard also discusses how critical an understanding of performance and emotion are for truly grasping the orally-rich nature of the Scriptures. Join as we continue to learn together.

    Ep 4.5 - Learning to Love our Oral Neighbors with Karlena de la Cruz

    In our latest conversation on Orality and the Gospel, we speak with Karlena de la Cruz from StoryRunners (Cru) about the vision God has given them: to see followers of Christ in communities of faith among every oral, unreached people group. Join us as we explore how to love our oral-reliant (and oral-preferenced) neighbors—some of whom may live much closer than you realize.

    Ep 4.4 - Overcoming Biblical Illiteracy with Oral Strategies: A Conversation with Tara Rye

    "We have made an assumption in the North American Church that because we are in church, we are reading the Bible. And we are not. We are biblically illiterate. We don't know what the Bible says; we know what the preacher says."  In this conversation with special guest Tara Rye, we discuss how God disrupted her biblical training, experience and expectations to introduce her to the world of orality. Join us as we explore the journey God has led Tara on as she describes being "re-born" into orality and how God is using her to help others experience God and his Word afresh through oral tools.

    Ep 4.2 - The Power of Story and Why Story Matters

    Join us and guest speaker Jyoti for a conversation on the power of story, and how it relates to the use of our imaginations in personalizing and deeply engaging with Gospel. Jyoti draws on his experience as a narrative entrepreneur in both fantasy fiction and the business sector to discuss practical tips on storytelling such as different types of stories as well as different preconceived ideas of storytelling and how those may need to be reconsidered. Furthermore, Jyoti has graciously made a discount available for his book on storytelling (From Hype to Hack) to our listeners that can be found at the end of the show.
