Mark Overstreet is a newly appointed Lausanne catalyst for orality. He has decades of experience in oral-based initiatives all across the globe, yet he carries the local church in his heart. Join us for a conversation with Mark wherein we get to learn about some of his journey into orality and why he continues to believe orality is critical for the global Body of Christ.

In our latest conversation on Orality and the Gospel, we speak with Karlena de la Cruz from StoryRunners (Cru) about the vision God has given them: to see followers of Christ in communities of faith among every oral, unreached people group. Join us as we explore how to love our oral-reliant (and oral-preferenced) neighbors—some of whom may live much closer than you realize.

"We have made an assumption in the North American Church that because we are in church, we are reading the Bible. And we are not. We are biblically illiterate. We don't know what the Bible says; we know what the preacher says."

In this conversation with special guest Tara Rye, we discuss how God disrupted her biblical training, experience and expectations to introduce her to the world of orality. Join us as we explore the journey God has led Tara on as she describes being "re-born" into orality and how God is using her to help others experience God and his Word afresh through oral tools.
