This conversation will begin with a brief and broad consideration of the typical text-reliant, systematic hermeneutical approaches of today. With those markers in place, Tom and Bill will spell out what they are offering by way of an oral hermeneutic and model this in a practical storytelling demonstration.

Orality & Theological Education: Addressing the Oral Oversight - Ep 2.6
Orality and Theological Education in the Majority World Context: Addressing the Oral Oversight
God is raising up theologically astute Majority World leaders who care about equipping their leaders with appropriate tools to engage the oral-reliant communicators in their communities. One of those thought-leaders is *Dr. Ezekiel Ajibade*, senior lecturer at Nigheria Baptist Theological Seminary. Dr. Ajibade will be joining us to discuss some of the concerns but also some of the practical steps that he and others are taking to help institutional gate-keepers recognize the necessity of orality for theological education in the twenty-first century. Such strategic conversations carry implications not only for places such as Nigeria but also for many other Majority World contexts.

Oral Scripture Engagement: A Grassroots Discussion — Part 2 - Ep 2.3
This month, we will continue our experiential learning together as we explore how God shapes different people's character in the Bible through various life experiences. Specifically, we will examine the intersections God offered to people and how they responded to those opportunities and the choices they made. Such investigations will contribute to developing arobust oral character study.
*Dr. Ray Neu *has learned some of the more practical and pragmatic aspects of doing Oral Hermeneutics in an African context. In the next several episodes, Ray will help us examine what the Bible itself says about interpretation as we explore treasures for today by considering the progressive development of characters found in the Bible.
This promises to be eye-opening, insightful and fun.
