Seriously you are absolutely correct. Stories, with props, with pictures, with puppets, with demonstrations I think tend to stick with you more than just reciting a bunch of scripture verses. Our Pastor used to use a lot of demonstrations and I can't tell you how many times I'll come across a passage and I remember the demonstration about it, that more than 20 years ago.
Já quero a parte 3 , 4 e 5 ... da entrevista. Muito bom Josh você entrevistados que trazem prática da memorização das escrituras. Quero mergulhar nas histórias e parábolas. Gratidão sempre! Deus abençoe este homens de Deus.
Ive been looking at oral cultures lately because I noticed a tendency, when giving arguments, that the disciples would give historical summaries to build their case. Stephen does this as well as Peter in Acts. That, along with the pattern of Jesus, made me wonder about the role of oral practices in the teaching of the word. I run a Bible study where we work to summarize long sections from memory-not rote but just in our own words. That's more for active recall, but I have been wondering if this was similar to the pattern of the early church. The reason I've wanted to engage with oral cultural practices around memory is for my kids, who are young, but also for adults. In America, we are functionally illiterate. We can read, sure, but we never read anything worth reading and thus we are not too different from an illiterate culture. Almost all that we learn is from oral sources. This is why youtube and things like TedTalks are so popular. We are way more oral that we want to believe. So I figured I should teach the bible so that it was in their heads, not from rote, but that they were able to recall it in their own words. This man has unlocked it for me. I knew I was onto something, but I missed a lot of parts. Thank you for this. The "how" has been confusing. Trying to create this from the ground up has been difficult. This resource is a God send.
I think this is a very cool way of handling the scriptures. I looked at the first one on your sheet of 100 and even looked those scriptures up in a few commentaries. And I actually wrote out some thoughts on a flash card to help me remember as I memorize those verses. That's such a good way to even memorize. Read it, try to tell it back, read it again. And also yes substituting names for pronouns because when you are telling something that happened in your life sometimes you have to explain who the players are. If I was telling you a funny story of something that happened at home, I'd have to tell you who was involved and how they related to me or the hearer wouldn't really understand. Excellent point
Thoroughly enjoyed this! Will definitely try to tell that specific story to children soon. Using that unique tool, of course! Gotta grab some tongue depressors ASAP. Thanks for this interview, Josh.
And best of all, it's fun. Fun for me and for who I tell the story too. It's a win-win-win. Win for me, win for who I tell the story to and a win for Christ. That's exciting

They do!
Thank you and Dr. Dinkins for the list of 100 Bible stories. I've already started.
Glad you've enjoyed it!

Josh excelente dia.

Thank you as always, Francisco!
This was definitely worth the wait! Between this and the "Chunk & Grid" method, my approach to evangelism is forever changed 🙏
Love it 🙏
Once again... Very inspiring. It's impacting my mission strategy.
So glad to hear that, Eric!
