William Carey International Development Journal

In the latest issue of William Carey International Development Journal, we will be highlighted the use of oral communication methods in education and cross-cultural ministry.

In this article, the author explores whether professors are assisting in the process of fulfilling the calling that students were created by God to fulfill. What if teaching methods are actually asking students to adjust to the professor’s print methods of assessment, like forcing a duck to walk on land?

Since the author consistently encounters objections to oral strategies, he thought it would be helpful to address for our readers some of the main concerns that are voiced and balance those concerns with the major benefits. In this article, he will go through many common objections to an oral strategy, and then present some benefits to this strategy as well.

In this article, the author explores the need for people interested in orality to move beyond just storytelling methods. He proposes the next and most important step is developing “oral bibles”.

This article will highlight the vital role of oralized Word, for our moment in history, and especially for Jewish ministry.
