Orality meets technology The Spoken Word in a Digital World

In the vast expanse of the digital world, we at Spoken Worldwide have found a unique intersection. A place where technology meets the profound depth of the spoken word. The spoken word in a digital world is not merely a concept but a practice. It’s a method through which we navigate the complexities of conveying the timeless truths of God’s word to oral learners in our modern age.


Bridging the Gap: Orality Meets Technology

The Digital World and Its Reach

The digital age has brought forth unprecedented connectivity. It’s knitting together people from every corner of the globe through invisible threads of data and digital communication. It’s a world where information is instant, but the depth of connection varies. All the noise and activity of the digital space reminds us to keep our focus on our Heavenly Father – to consistently connect with Him and deepen our relationship with Him. We also know that Jesus called us to go, share the Good News with all nations, and the digital landscape provides us with a modern approach to evangelize around the world. 

Spoken Worldwide’s Technological Approach

At Spoken Worldwide, we leverage technology to enhance our mission. We want to make sure the gospel is heard, understood, and internalized by oral learners across the globe. Our technology is not merely a tool but a vessel. It’s carrying the spoken word to ears that are eager to hear and hearts that are ready to receive.


The Impact of Digital Tools in Spreading the Gospel

The Role of Technology in Orality

Technology has become an integral part of our strategy to convey oral Bible stories and community development teachings. We utilize digital tools to record, share, and disseminate the spoken word. This ensures it reaches even the most remote communities.

Engaging Oral Learners in a Digital Age

Through digital platforms, we facilitate discussions and encourage communities to delve deeper into the stories they hear. As a result, it’s fostering robust and sustainable spiritual growth.

Give Where Needed Most

Pray

“A changed world begins with us … and a changed us begins when we pray.” –Eugene Peterson
We often take it for granted, but prayer is powerful and always accessible. Deciding to stop and pray for ourselves or others immediately reminds us that there is more going on than what we see. It is the simplest and most powerful way for us to recognize that God is real and at work in the world.
Sign up for monthly updates and prayer requests from the Spoken team regarding specific programs, people and issues around the world. When you get them, remember that God is King and ask Him to bring about lasting change for His glory and our joy.
