Making Disciples of Oral Learners

Making Disciples of Oral Learners Audiobook

About two-thirds of the world’s population are oral learners; they communicate mainly by stories, songs, proverbs, poetry and chants. Yet the vast majority of Christian mission endeavors use literate communication styles that oral learners do not understand or accept.

Learn how you can make disciples of oral learners from tribal cultures and even post-literate, postmodern, media-sophisticated cultures. Discover why orality is a key to reaching the world for Christ.

Making Disciples of Oral Learners Audiobook is a 2-hour, 2-disc set that will play in any CD player. This professionally produced audio book is read by radio announcer Earl Schlabach, along with Lebo Pooe, the voice of Trans World Radio-Africa. Hear experts in Orality in their own voices and narratives read by an international cast of voice actors.

Produced by StoryRunners on behalf of the International Orality Network. Disc 2 contains special features that are accessible with a computer.
