– our marketing and media coordinator

We would like to introduce Kyla Brits, our Walk Thru the Bible marketing and media coordinator. We are grateful, not only for her hard work on our websites and media but also for her great attitude to life, as demonstrated in her life motto: 

The only time you look back is to find things to be thankful for
– so that you can build your faith.
Otherwise, only look forward!

We asked Kyla a few questions to help you get to know her…

Tell us about your role at Walk Thru the Bible and how this fits in with your unique gifts and talents

I love the science of marketing and the art of website design – and so I am grateful that I can serve the Lord in my role as marketing and media coordinator at Walk Thru the Bible.  It is a privilege to use my passion for the Lord’s work and that is a ministry unto the Lord.

Why do you have a passion for the mission of WTB – ie igniting a passion for God’s Word? 

We all need more of God’s Word in our lives. Walk Thru the Bible’s specific focus on helping people to engage with, and love, God’s Word is helping me and others get closer to God, through His Word. I love that with my job, I get to help spread the Word and stories of God’s goodness. I get to help make the message known over the media!

How did you come to know Christ as Saviour?

I remember as a little girl, my mom led me through the prayer of salvation. Then when I was older, I used to watch Decade of the Daring – a teen christian programme on television on Sunday afternoons. There they advertised a camp, which I ended up attending and where I re-committed my life to Christ. Everything changed from then.

Can you provide a fun fact about yourself and your family?

My husband and two daughters are all go-getters, so we like hiking and being active. On holiday, we rarely rest, but explore and do everything that is available in the surrounding area!

We are delighted to have trained the first instructors from Scripture Union who will be taking otLIVE into the schools where they work.

Through this, we pray that many young people will come to understand the big picture of God’s story – and His gift to us in Christ.

Some of these new otLIVE instructors share their feedback…

It is amazing that you can learn and understand the whole Old Testament in just a few hours! And you never get bored. I love how it shows one story connecting to another. The hand signs also make it easy to understand and remember. I highly recommend otLIVE – even to parents who want to teach the Word of God to their children.   ~ Jeffery

otLIVE will be an amazing tool for us as we engage with kids. This can be easily taught to children to help them understand the Bible in a real way and see how it all fits together. The hand signs also help them to really catch on quickly. This will really have an impact in the schools that we are in and add value to what we are doing. Actually, it’s mind-shifting to be able to visualize the Old Testament coming together – and to see where all the bits slot into the big picture!         ~ Warren

What I loved about otLIVE, is that I now understand the flow and fit of stories in the Bible. It’s great that by teaching otLIVE to kids, they can understand the big story of the Bible – and if you understand the big story, then you really appreciate what Christ did for us. Also, personally, otLIVE helped me develop an appetite for the Word of God – to really dive deep into the stories. The Word is alive and always speaks to us! ~ Stacey

otLIVE simplified the Old Testament for me to understand. I needed this training! This is an amazing tool to reach young people. otLIVE will change lives.

otLIVE will be so helpful in getting the kids in the schools to understand the Bible better. But actually, it’s not just for kids – otLIVE ignites passion for everyone to read the Bible. I’ll be teaching more young people (and old) to know the Bible with this tool.

otLIVE unpacks the big picture of the Old Testament in an engaging way – helping people to learn and undertand the major people and palces of the Old Testament in just a few hours. For more about otLIVE, please click here.
