In this case study, Tony shares common struggles of sharing with Buddhists and Tibetans who have a very different worldview, resulting in misunderstandings and confusion. Tony’s team viewed illiteracy as a major problem in reaching Tibetans, so they began using Bible Stories to tell people about Jesus. In doing so, they discovered that the root of many of their other problems was Tibetans’ preference for oral learning. When they started using simple oral Bible Stories, understanding skyrocketed among listeners as the concrete and relatable nature of stories opened hearts and minds to Jesus, and a set of stories built the framework to understand the gospel.
