    See p. 130 (epub) or p. 212 (paperback) for YouTube videos demonstrating Character Theology in three settings (Filipino, African, Floridan Americans): “To help prepare yourself for the Jonah story, don’t read the four chapters. Rather, gather some friends and listen (don’t follow the written text) to the story. Why hear it? Because “silent reading encourages psychological distance and a high degree of dispassionate objectivity.”501 Then watch the story presented and debriefed by Ray at Cross Bridge Church in Rockledge, Florida.502”
