That Reminds Me of a Story is a new podcast, hosted by Don Barger and Grant Lovejoy, exploring emerging trends in orality and the communication of the gospel. It answers common questions about the orality movement.

The goal of the podcast is to better equip followers of Christ to carry out the task of making disciples of all nations while encouraging a conversation about how best to connect oral communicators with the gospel.

In the first episode, Don and Grant take on a common question they receive when training others about oral strategies. Many people ask, “Why don’t they just learn to read?” A second question addressed on this episode is why tell stories instead of just letting non-readers listen to the Bible being read. Why is a told story different from a story being read?
