Summary

Two-Thirds of the world don't read. How can the church reach them? Tell Me a Story is a profound call to the global church to use storytelling, or Orality, as a primary method for communicating Christ's gospel to the world. Dennis Johnson and Joe Musser outline compelling and practical strategies for reaching children and adults around the world whose primary way of learning is through hearing oral stories. You will be inspired and equipped to make Orality, or story telling, a part of your ministry in your neighborhood, in your local church, and around the world. "Tell Me a Story combines heartwarming stories with cutting-edge methods to help the church reach a burgeoning population of non-readers. It's an important work for every Christian interested in reaching the lost!"Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends International Disability Center "Denny Johnson and Joe Musser get it. They know why telling the right story the right way is so important. Read this book, and you will know too."Lt. Col. Oliver North, USMC (Ret.), New York Times best-selling author-speaker "Jesus had a heart for children that changed the world-and changes it still. You need to read Tell Me a Story so you can be part of the movement."John Ortberg, Jr., author and pastor of Menlo Park Presbyterian Church
