“ The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”

~ Matt 9:37,38

A daily alarm. A dedicated reminder to pray this prayer. A faithful group of prayer warriors…

And now, a delight to see how the Lord is answering.
A wave of new instructors, men and women with a real heart for God, have come forward for training and are teaching the Bible and helping others engage with the God of the Bible and find their place in His story.

We are grateful for this expanding group of equipped instructors who can use otLIVE and otSTORIES to help others engage with God’s Word in a clear, practical and memorable way.

Feedback from some new instructors, who were recently trained in Johannesburg…

“I wasn’t just entertained when I first did otLIVE. It gripped me as I came to understand the big picture of God’s story. For me, there was a revelation of God. And I want this for others. That is why I chose to be trained as an otLIVE instructor.

I pray that God will touch others as I teach otLIVE, just as He touched me. May this transform lives and bring people straight to Christ. I pray they will desire to know God more and obey His Word. God is doing something big with this. You can see it, as so many of us work to get the Gospel out to people.”

“This training got me reading the Old Testament for myself because I realised how much I was missing out on! The skills I learnt and this style of teaching will be so useful with the youth. When I got home from the training, I took my family right through the big picture of the Old
Testament”

“I have learnt how to bring the Old Testament to life for people, so that people can relate to the events that happened, be ‘in the story’ and see God’s plan for humanity. This training got me out of my comfort zone and beyond my own anxiety.”

In Moeketsi, Limpopo, 20 new instructors have been trained to take otLIVE and otSTORIES into rural villages and schools. In addition, local trainers are now in place to continue training instructors to teach the Bible in this area, where the need is great.

We are delighted at the example of this young man, who after being exposed to otSTORIES at a recent Student Christian Organisation conference, got up and started teaching the Bible. This new tool from Walk Thru the Bible really is that easy to use!

You, too, can help others meet the living God through His Word. otSTORIES provides a way to do that, with minimal training and preparation.
