Abstract: Exploring the oral influence on Christ’s teachings reveals effective and creative orality methods for training servant leaders. Jesus used narrative stories, parables, and rural illustrations, embracing the tradition of orality in Jewish culture. Inspired by this, we implemented semi-oral methods in leadership workshops with the Mayan community in Quintana Roo, Mexico. Strategies included storytelling, indigenous context-based activities, visual images, and music. The success of this semi-oral approach underscores orality as a tool for developing servant leaders in indigenous and rural contexts, aligning with Christ’s transformative ministry.
