These stories change lives
“Because I was unable to read and write, I never felt connected to God. This is the first time I felt I have a connection with God, and now I know God loves me.”
Banu, a South Asian woman, after hearing an oral Bible story
StoryRunners® exists to help
fulfill the Great Commission among
unreached people groups in oral cultures.
population are oral learners
who best learns through
spoken narrative.
42% of the world’s
population
live in unreached
people groups with little to no
access to the gospel.
We equip people to produce oral Bible stories to launch church-planting movements among those who do not have access to the Bible in a way that speaks to their hearts.
We accomplish this through the School of Storying. It is an in-country workshop with local people who develop The Promise, a series of Bible stories from Creation to the Return of Jesus, in their language in four weeks.
Our vision is to see followers of Christ in communities of faith among every unreached people group in oral cultures.
StoryRunners® has completed 101 Bible story sets (in-house or with a partnering ministry).
