Thompson Preface The old woman threaded her way through the crowd of women huddled around me. I watched from the corner of my eye as someone offered her a stool. She pulled it over to sit close beside me. I had just finished the lesson and was preparing to leave. Because many of the women had arrived late, I had already repeated the Bible story eight times. The old woman sat on the stool and stared at me. I greeted her as I continued to gather my things. Then, one of the other women touched my arm gently. "You'll have to tell it again," she said. "She's never heard." As I travel through West Africa, through the countless villages, the bustling cities, I hear these words again and again in my mind. "Tell it again.... She's never heard." In one tiny village, I watched a group of village elders as they sat discussing a well project, their lined faces alight with welcome for the white people in their midst. As they sat beneath a huge mango tree, gesturing and laughing, I asked myself how I could share the gospel with these men. They are not of the ethnic group I work with, so I cannot speak their language. But even if I could, if I told them they were lost, they would look at me in wonder. They had lived in the same village all their lives. How could they be lost? I could give them a Bible. But none of them can read. I could move to their village, learn their language, and teach them to read. But that would take a very long time. And what about their neighbors just a few kilometers to the west who speak a different language? Who will go to them? The Bible says in 2 Peter 3:9 that, "The Lord...is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance." God cares about those elderly men in that obscure village. He knows that they, too, need to hear the gospel message in a way that they can understand. He has given us a teaching method uniquely suited for sharing the message in West Africa. It is a method that Jesus used, telling stories to teach truth. Bible stories to teach biblical truth. This book will help you learn about this Bible teaching method. But who will go and tell these Bible stories? The number of people in West Africa who have never heard the gospel is overwhelming. We must add to that figure the number of those who have heard and may even frequent our churches but have not become new creatures in Christ because they have never really understood the gospel. We, as strangers, come to your land with a calling and a great vision but limited human resources. We struggle with learning the language, becoming acceptable in your culture, and maintaining long- distance family relationships. How can we go to every village, to every neighborhood to share the message of Christ? We cannot. But West Africa can be reached. It must be reached. God's call to Isaiah still rings through the centuries. "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" God is calling more and more African Christians to become pastors and missionaries...missionaries to the cities...missionaries to the villages...missionaries to Muslims and to ethnic groups that have never heard. As God shares his vision, you are responding. How will West Africa be reached and the message of salvation shared? African reaching African. Heart reaching heart. May we all, hand in hand, look to God for his direction.

And surely I will be with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20 Issiaka watched as the members of his congregation began to move to the front of the small mud-block church in response to the words of the evangelist. Each evening it had been the same. "Do you want peace? Do you want joy? Then follow Jesus!" the evangelist had cried. And the people had come. All of them. Every night. Even those who had been Christians for years. Even those who tomorrow would go to the diviner to ask him to consult the ancestors to see if it were time to plant the corn. The evangelist, Reverend Jenkins, was a good man. He meant well. Issiaka didn't dare say anything to him. But something was wrong. Terribly wrong. The people just didn't understand. The evangelist had a message he wanted to give to the people. He spoke, and the people listened. But it is not enough for people to listen. They must also understand. The process of giving and understanding a message is called communication*. Communication involves three things: (1) someone with a message, (2) the message itself, and (3) someone who receives the message. Even when these three things are present, it does not mean that communication takes place. For communication to occur, the person hearing the message must understand the information in the same way the message giver intended. For example, Boukary's teacher tells him that Boukary is first in his class. Boukary runs home from school to tell his father. He wants to share some news. The fact that he is first in his class is the message, and Boukary's father is the one with whom he wants to share the news. But what if Boukary speaks French when he talks to his father? Since his father does not speak French, communication will not take place. Communication will be blocked because the father cannot understand his son's message. The three things necessary for communication were present. There was a person with a message. There was a message. There was someone to hear the message. But communication did not take place because the person hearing the message could not understand it.

  • For 40 Days Was Written by Dina Strong with Illustrations by Ed Koehler
    40 CLUES for 40 D ays Finding the Mystery of Easter Do you love a good mystery? Maybe you like to read mystery books. Maybe you like to play hide and seek or go on treasure hunts. Maybe you like to solve puzzles. We love mysteries, too—and so does the Church. One of the Church’s greatest mysteries is the mystery of Easter. The Church uses the word mystery to mean stories and truths so big we can’t understand them without help. And God helps us! The Church invites us to enter right into the great mysteries of our faith. Nothing is hidden from us, but we have to say “yes” to the invitation to come and explore. This Lent, we’ll explore the mysteries of the Church’s stories and traditions. We’ll look more closely at the mys- teries of the rosary: the stories of Jesus’ life that help us understand the mystery of Easter. We will look especially at the mysteries that are found in the Gospel stories that we will hear at Sunday Mass during Lent and during Holy Week. All of our puzzles, prayers and stories will get us ready for the greatest mystery of all: the mystery of Easter. So put on your “thinking cap” and let’s get started! 2 Ash Wednesday Jesus fasted for forty days and forty nights. – Matthew 4:2 – Why do we say there are 40 days in Lent when there are 46 more days until Easter? That’s because we don’t count Sundays! 40 is a number that comes up over and over again in the Bible.

  • The Warwick ELT Archive Catalogue (2Nd Edition)
    The Warwick ELT Archive Catalogue (2nd edition) 1. Published material (up to 1979) Edited by Richard Smith Centre for Applied Linguistics, University of Warwick Published online (2009): www.warwick.ac.uk/go/elt_archive/catalogue Preface to the previous (June 2008) edition This catalogue (June 2008) has been compiled thanks to work by Aruni Mukherjee and Duncan Hunter between 2004 and 2008 which has been financed partly by grants from the University of Warwick Research Development Fund (2003) and the A.S. Hornby Educational Trust (2005-2007). Items on shelves are now all listed in this catalogue, in alphabetical order of book title. Significant parts of the collection remain to be catalogued, including genuinely ‘archival’ items (photographs, typescripts, etc.) and AV materials (tapes, gramophone records, films etc.). Preface to this (October 2009) edition Further work on cataloguing, primarily by Sheila Verrier, has been greatly facilitated by a British Council research grant (Jan.-Dec. 2009). Cataloguing conventions have been rationalized, and a large number of additional items have been incorporated into the collection from donations or storage. The present edition of the catalogue lists all items on shelves (‘published items’) by alphabetical order of author. There are now 3,643 separate published items in the catalogue (almost all of them books), up from 2,727 items in the first edition of the catalogue. Progress has also been made in cataloguing genuinely ‘archival’ items (photographs, typescripts, etc.) – these are listed in a separate Part 2 of the catalogue (‘Unpublished / Archival material’), available for download from www.warwick.ac.uk/go/elt_archive/catalogue. Front cover image credit: This is a ‘Wordle’ produced by http://www.wordle.net/, which represents frequency of words in this catalogue (under ‘Catalogue entries’ below) in visual form.
