Samuel Chiang of Hong Kong, the Global Coordinator of the International Orality Network explains ION’s focus of connect with the world’s oral majority, widely using bible “storying” and other proven methods. ION is motivated by the fact that … if a Bible were given to everyone in the world in his or her on language, the majority could not read it. The world is composed of primarily oral learners. To complete the Great Commission of Jesus (Matthew 28:18-20), we must address this reality.
Samuel Chiang, the successor in the orality movement to the late, great Dr. Avery Willis (www.averywillis.com), invites us to attend the International Orality Network Annual Conference in Estes Park, CO Sept 17 – 20 (and in other locations in subsequent years).
