2010 October: Davar Partners and “Simply the Story”

Dear Reader,

Davar Partners and "Simply the Story"

Davar_STS_CT"I have learned more about the Word of God in the 5 days of STS compared to 3 years of Bible School!"

Davar_STS_PtaThis statement was made by a participant in a "Simply the Story" (STS) workshop facilitated by Davar Partners in South Africa. 30 trainers representing organizations in 14 nations learned to share the Word of God with oral learners using a story telling method that has proven effective around the world. They have now returned to their own nations equipped to teach in towns and villages where as many as 90% of the population is functionally illiterate.
After the training a worker from an inner city shared the following: "We have been using the Story Telling Strategy and The God Story in sharing the Word of God with the orphans. The success to date compared to the previous methods we have been using is not comparable. We can see that the children really enjoy this and do make the stories their own."
Gerhard Marx, Davar Partners' Africa Director, summed up the impact, "Our goal was to equip trainers who will spread story telling throughout Southern Africa. Stories are so effective here because everyone in oral communities loves a story and will tell it to others. As the villagers discuss the stories we have seen whole communities change their practices. It has only been a few weeks but we already have requests to bring this training to three more nations - Zambia, Botswana and Zimbabwe."
Davar_STS_FieldStorytellers who are equipped with audio players such as the DAVAR Audibible™ multiply the hearing of the Word of God exponentially. Our partners tell us that as many as 500 people listen to each player in the course of a year. Davar Partners loads stories with Biblical content, as well as health, sanitation and nutrition, onto solar powered audio players that are passed from village to village and household to household, continuing a ripple effect that affects thousands of lives.
In faith,

  
David
