Our new emphasis in Africa is to empower the laypersons who  are doing the majority of the preaching and teaching in the church.  If Africans are to be defined by the gospel then the gospel will have to be rediscovered in Africa in the context of the Bible Story. The best way to do this is to teach Biblical and Systematic Theology in the local church using the Bible’s own stories.

This is why we are now working with the Africa Christian Training Institute. We're leaving the African Bible College where we’ve been for 12 years. Our funding will now go through the Africa Christian Training Institute. ACTI is a recognized charitable organization founded by Dr. Henry Krabbendam, who taught at Covenant College for 35 years. I first met Dr. Krabbendam in the early 1990’s when he spoke at our Knox Seminary chapel. In recent years we have developed a working relationship with Dr. Krabbendam, and we now consider him a mentor and family friend.  ACTI has been committed to strengthening the Church in Sub-Saharan Africa for over 25 years. We are honored to work with them.  



ACTI gives us the flexibility to teach and live at the ‘Christian Conference Center’ our friends from Ruth Shawl’s ministry are building in Malawi. We plan to stay connected to Malawi by helping to launch a ‘School of Storying’ that can be led entirely by local leadership.  This September we will work with St. Pauls’ Evangelical Anglican Church in South Africa to start an International Church designed to reach Black African students attending the University of Stellenbosch. We plan to grow this Church using our Biblical storytelling and with the help of Edwin Mwale, an ABC graduate.

Your prayerful support of the ministry the Lord has given us in Africa is deeply appreciated. The ‘new direction’ the Lord is taking us in is an opportunity to strengthen our partnership in the gospel in Southern Africa. Together we can help strengthen the African Church by teaching the gospel through the Bible’s own stories.

Confex Makhalira and I at StoryRunners in Orlando.
 

Over the past 12 years I’ve been privileged to teach Biblical and Systematic Theology in Malawi to over 600 students, now graduates, many who are leaders in various Christian groups. For example, four are Pastors at Presbyterian (CCAP) Churches in Lilongwe. The smallest of these churches has 1000 members and the largest has over 10,000 members.

The Nkhoma Synod of the CCAP has over 2 million members but only 150 ordained ministers. While I’ve taught a dozen of these Nkhoma Synod Pastors, that is only 1 per year. The vast majority of the preaching and teaching in the Nkhoma Synod, and many other African churches, is done by untrained laypersons. How do we empower the lay persons who doing the majority of the preaching and teaching?



Learning Biblically accurate, orally reproducible stories.



In Africa the gospel is usually propagated in ‘bits and pieces’ apart from the ‘Biblical Story’. The tendency has been to reduce the ‘gospel’ to a few propositions striped from its story. Most Africans learn their ‘identity, history and values’ through stories. When this ‘reductionist gospel’ is promoted among ‘oral learners’ the people remain more defined by their cultural stories than by the gospel of Jesus. If Africans are to have their identities, history and values defined by the gospel then the gospel in Africa will have to be rediscovered in the context of the Bible story. We believe the best way to do this is to teach Biblical Theology using the Bible’s own stories.



This is why we recently attended the ‘Storyrunners School of Storying’ in Orlando. I participated in this weeklong training with Confex Makalira, the 2005 ABC valedictorian.  As a student Confex preached at our Maula Prison Outreach for three years. He writes a weekly theological article in a Malawian newspaper and he has worked with us on a number of in-service trainings for Church Pastors. He is currently in seminary in the states and his emphasis is in Systematic Theology.  Confex realizes that most Africans are ‘oral learners’ and that ‘Bible doctrine’ is better comprehended in the African context through the Bible’s own stories.

The method of ‘Bible Storytelling’ we learned in Orlando has given us the tools to produce a set of 42 Bible stories in the indigenous languages of Malawi. These stories range from ‘Creation to New Creation’ and are designed to tell the overall Biblical Story that is fulfilled in Jesus. The training taught us a method of teaching stories that are Biblically accurate and orally reproducible. It has also given us a series of checks to help ensure these stories are true to the Bible. We plan to hold these same trainings in Malawi with Malawian Christians who can produce the same ‘story set’ in their own languages. http://www.storyrunners.org/.

In order to teach Biblical Theology in the ‘Local Church’ to both Pastors and laypersons the Lord is leading us in a new direction.  Some dear friends are currently building a Christian Conference Center in Malawi. In time we would move to staff housing they plan to build at the center. From there we would teach Pastors, Church leaders and Church groups Biblical and Systematic Theology through the Bible’s own stories. For now we will stay connected to the Malawian Church by helping launch a ‘School of Storying’ in Malawi that will eventually be lead entirely by indigenous leadership.

This fall we will go to South Africa where St. Paul’s Evangelical Anglican Church has called us to start an International Church. This International Church at St. Paul’s would seek to reach Black African students attending the University of Stellenbosch. We plan to do this with the help of Edwin Mwale, an ABC graduate, attending seminary in South Africa. We will use our Biblical storytelling to start this Church.



Dr. Krabbendam with our daughter Clara.

Consequently, we are leaving the African Bible College to work through the Africa Christian Training Institute. ACTI is an officially recognized charitable organization that is committed to the church in Sub-Saharan Africa. ACTI was founded by Dr. Krabbendam, a highly respected Evangelist and Theologian who taught at Covenant College for 35 years (PCA). We have held a number of seminars and in-service trainings for Pastors in Malawi with Dr. Krabbendam over the years. The Africa Christian Training Institute has been training Christian leaders in Sub-Saharan Africa for over 25 years. It is an honor for us to work with them.

We ask that you would prayerfully consider partnering with us to strengthen the African Church by teaching Biblical and Systematic Theology through the Bible’s own stories. This ministry is dependent upon the faithful prayers and generous financial support of individuals and churches like you.

When I told my students the 'Joseph Story' and of 'God's Providence' they gave me an ovation (Gen.45:5-8, 50:20). The only other ovation I ever received in class was for wearing a handmade African shirt in class, which they loved.

I was asked by the ABC Music director to teach a one week course on John’s gospel. He wanted music students to be able to take more of the courses required for music majors. I said I would if we could story through John wherever possible. There are discourses in John that really aren’t stories but we taught John through stories as much as we could. It would take me two hours before class to review a story such as Nicodemus in John 3 in order to tell it accurately. Yet the students could learn a story in roughly 30 minutes. This showed me that these African students were great at learning and telling Bible stories.

As a final assignment for the John class, we had the students present in either song or drama the seven signs in John (John 2:1-11, 4:46-54, 5:1-18, 6:1-14, 6:16-21, 9:1-41, 11:1-44). Amazingly they wrote five songs and two dramas in two days.  The music director commented that this could not happen in the states. The students performed the songs and dramas in the college chapel and the other students loved it. In fact, the Malawian assistant to the Music director said this was the best thing they had done.  These same students performed their songs from John to the inmates at Maula Prison. When the prisoners heard this they said, ‘We can do this”.  In other words they could learn the stories of the Bible and put those stories to song.

A majority of Africans, like 4 billion other people in the world, are ‘oral learners’. They learn their ‘identity, history and values’ through stories and songs. They either cannot read their own spoken language or they prefer to learn by ‘oral means’ such as storytelling.
 http://www.storiacreative.com/
 
If I preach a three point sermon from a Bible passage to the prisoners, they may applaud, but they simply do not retain much. But, if I tell the story of Joseph they can remember that story. They not only can remember the story, they can discuss the story and they can tell others that story.  

I tell you this to help you understand why I consider it so important that we attend the ‘School of Storying’ being held by ‘Storyrunners’ (March 23-28, 2014). God willing I’ll be attending this week long seminar with my Malawian friend, Confex Makalira. Confex was the 2005 valedictorian at ABC and he has preached at Maula Prison and at the ABC chapel numerous times. ‘StoryRunners’ is the Bible Storytelling ministry of Campus Crusade. ‘Bible Storytelling’ is a natural, contextual way of telling Bible stories that can lead to evangelism and discipleship. The ‘School of Storying’ is a weeklong introduction to what our team will do in Malawi. Our Malawian team aims to take a set of 42 Bible stories to the various people groups in Malawi. These stories—from ‘Creation to New Creation’—make up the ‘story set’ used in the ‘School of Storying’. Our Malawian team will be trained so they can train Malawian Christians through the ‘Bible Storytelling’ process in Malawi in their own languages. 

If we are going to help strengthen the Malawian Church then we are going to have to apply what I learned in my classes. We will need to teach Christ-centered Biblical Theology and Systematic Theology in the ‘Local Church’ to the laypersons that are doing the majority of the preaching. We have to teach Biblical Theology through the Bible’s own stories. Moreover, even difficult Bible doctrines, such as ‘God’s Sovereignty and His Providence’ are more effectively taught to ‘oral learners’ using the Bible’s own stories.
 

Your prayers on the following items will be greatly appreciated.  

1.       For the School of Storying’ being held in March that Confex Makalira and I will attend.
2.       That we would receive the funding necessary to attend the ‘School of Storying’.
3.       That we can attend the ‘Missionary Training Institute’ in Colorado at the end of April.
4.       That we will be able get Clara the help she needs to improve her reading ability.
5.       That opportunity to preach and speak at Churches and small groups will open up.
6.       That we would be build up our team of ministry partners and partnering churches.
7.       For God’s vision for our ministry as we go through this time of change and transition.

My daughter Clara loves stories. When I ran out of stories appropriate to tell her, I asked myself, ‘how many Bible stories have I internalized that I can tell to my daughter naturally in my own words?’  

"...tell us a story"
 

So I started telling the stories I was teaching in my Daniel class to Clara and we also told them at Maula Prison in Lilongwe. I told the story of Nebuchadnezzar’s ‘dream tree’ in which the Babylonian King lost everything, including his mind, before he 'looked to heaven and was restored'. After telling the story a prisoner said, ‘Nebuchadnezzar lost everything before he repented. We have nothing, who are we not to repent? The other prisoners responded in agreement with him. Now only 10% of those prisoners had finished secondary school but they ‘understood the doctrine’ and they ‘got it’ through the story!

"Let me tell you a story..."
"

In class at ABC, I was teaching ‘Every Thought Captive’, a ‘High School’ level apologetic book but the students at the College really weren’t ‘getting it’. Yet, the same students were ‘getting’ the difficult doctrine of the ‘Sovereignty of God’ from the stories of Daniel. So I decided to start teaching other doctrines through stories such as the ‘Providence of God’ from the ‘Story of Joseph’. I told the story of Paul’s conversion and asked the students what they liked about the story. They said, ‘God can change anyone’. I asked what the story teaches about man and they said, ‘man is not the seeker’. Then I asked what the story taught about God and a student raised his hand and said, ‘Predestination’. 

I had 70 students in class write a book report on the book, ‘Making Disciples of Oral Learners’. Every one of them said that Africans learn their ‘identity, history and values’ through stories and songs. That book says that 2/3 of the people in the world are oral learners. Half of these 4 billion people cannot read their own spoken language. The other half can read, but prefer to learn by being 'told what to do' rather than 'reading how to do something'. We all learn our own language by ‘oral means’ but oral learners prefer to learn through the ‘spoken word’ either by necessity or choice! http://www.lausanne.org/docs/2004forum/LOP54_IG25.pdf

Ironically, God has given us a book, the Bible, that is 80% stories and songs. However, our tendency in the Western Church has been to remove the ‘gospel’ from its story and reduce it to a few propositions to believe to go to heaven when you die. So we strip the gospel from the historical story of God’s plan to ‘redeem this fallen world’ and reduce it to a few propositions to believe to ‘escape this fallen world’.

In Africa the gospel is usually propagated in ‘bits and pieces’ apart from God’s redemptive historical story and the people remain largely defined by their own cultural stories. Africans identify with Christianity on a large scale, but all too often it is accepted because it comes with education, medical and the hope of ‘material prosperity’. This leads to a syncretized blend of Christianity with African traditional religion. As a result there are these 100,000 member ‘Nigerian Churches’ with TV stations and these churches are attracting Africans with their ‘Health and Wealth’ gospel.

To help shape African Christianity by the gospel we need to teach a Christ-centered Biblical Theology in the ‘Local Church’ using the Bible's own stories . Now we are seeking the Lord’s guidance on how we can better empower and equip the local African Churches. Our aim is to help strengthen the local church with the gospel so that African Christianity can positively shape the future of Christianity. Right now we are taking the following steps:

1)    ‘Storyrunners’ and their ‘School of Storying’.  
We plan to attend the ‘StoryRunners School of Storying’ in Orlando. Our team will learn 42 Bible stories to take to Malawi and the 5 day training is an introduction to what a 3 person team will do overseas. https://www.gcx.org/SR500/

2)    ‘Chichewa Story Bible’.  We are putting a set of Biblical stories into a book as a Layman’s Biblical Theology through stories. Each story will have a couple pages of helps (context, theme, fulfilment in Christ).  We have a Malawian publisher, a former newspaper writer, and several Malawian Pastors committed to the project. The book will tell God's redemptive historical story through the Bible's own stories and will serve as an aid to a Biblical ‘storyteller’.

 

Christmas ya bwino (Merry Christmas) 2013!

Dear Friends and Family,    
 

27 years ago, God opened my eyes to see my sin as forgiven ‘in Christ’. Over the years God has graciously given me life, health, my wife, three daughters, a ministry and hope for the future. Today I am far more convinced of the sufficiency of God’s grace, but I am just as dependent upon that grace as when these lyrics first made sense to me at Christmas 1986!

Merry Christmas from the 'Stoms Family'.

“...Christ, our Saviour was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan's power when we were gone astray
O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy”

Romans 7:24–25a What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?  Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!

Romans 8:1 ...there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,

We really appreciate your prayerful support over the past year. To a large extent our lives run on the prayers of our supporting friends, family and churches. It has been great to visit our home churches here in the Pacific Northwest and we hope to be able to visit more as we finish out our year furlough. It has also been good to meet stateside with some of our friends that we normally see in Malawi such as the Mortons, Martins, Robbins, Willsons and Braseltons. Being able to spend time with grandparents is also a big treat.

For the most part we have been busy preaching and making missions presentations where possible. It is nice to take a break from the stress of missions and reflect on things, though life in America is really not that restful. But we have been able to see some beautiful Northwest sights such as the Oregon and Washington coasts, Leavenworth, Snoqualmie Falls and the Olympic peninsula. This past Friday, the girls got to make a snow man and that was a dream come true for them. Also, we’ve been enjoying our ‘cozy’ accommodations in Woodinville and are thankful for our gracious ‘landlords’, Lan and Pat Petrick.

Clara and Katherine were so excited to see snow!

As we look to the future we are optimistic and are looking forward to seeing how the Lord will guide us. We feel like things are changing for us so we are asking that the Lord give us his vision for our ministry. In the meantime we will be homeschooling our daughters, spending time with old friends and partnering churches. We’ve made some new friends and we’ve been getting some good counsel from the Thomsons from Bellewood Church and from the Reeds with Action International.

As we move into the New Year, we will continue to speak at churches and small groups when possible. We welcome your invitations to speak at various churches and small groups. Please join us in prayer as we make the following requests known to God!

1)    That God will give us peace as a family and clarify our vision for ministry.
2)    That our children will excel in their homeschooling environment.
3)    For opportunities to speak at various churches and small groups.
4)    That we can build our team of ministry partners.
5)    That we can communicate with our ministry partners better (updates, blog, website).
6)    That God will provide for all our financial needs as a family.
7)    To produce the ‘Chichewa Story Bible’ and for the ‘Storyrunners’ training’ in Orlando.

Greetings Friends and Family from Woodinville, WA.,    

Levi Dannayo teaching scripture songs.
 

We are thankful for your partnership with us in the gospel in Africa. We are grateful for the 600 African students that we’ve been privileged to teach Bible classes to over the past 12 years. Many of these graduates are Pastors while others teach Bible knowledge at schools and in ministries throughout Malawi. We are also thankful for all our students who have ministered to the spiritual and physical needs of inmates at Maula Prison for over a decade. In addition, we are thankful that the ‘Songs for Saplings’ music is being taught throughout Malawi by our dear friend, Levi Dannayo and there are now two CDs of Catechism and scripture songs in Chichewa.

New Focus for Ministry:

Doing Pastoral Training @ Nkhoma

We are thankful how the Lord has been teaching us that Africans learn their history, identity and values from stories and songs and that God has given us a book that is 80% stories and songs. In the Western church we extracted various ‘creeds and confessions’ from the Bible’s story that, in recent decades, have been reduced to ‘short tracks’ of what to believe to go to heaven when you die.  While Christianity has been widely accepted in Africa, it is usually propagated in ‘bits and pieces’ apart from ‘God’s Story’.  Moreover, this ‘reductionist gospel’ has failed to transform African culture and people remain largely defined by their own cultural stories, rather than the ‘gospel’.  

If Africans are to have their identities, history and values defined by the gospel then the gospel will have to be rediscovered in the context of the Bible story. To this end, we are focusing on teaching Christ-centered Biblical theology in the African context through Bible stories (God’s story thru God’s stories). To do this more effectively we believe the Lord is directing us in the following ways.

1)       ‘Storyrunners’ and their ‘School of Storying’ (http://www.storyrunners.com/).

We plan to bring a Malawian team to the ‘School of Storying’ in Orlando (March 2014), hosted by ‘StoryRunners’, the Bible Storying ministry of Campus Crusade.  Our team will learn ‘Bible Storying’ which is a natural, contextual telling and discussion of Bible stories that can lead to evangelism, discipleship, and church planting. Telling Bible stories is the best way to help those in ‘oral cultures’ to hear the gospel.

The ‘School of Storying’ is a 5 day introduction to what a 3 person team will do overseas. Our Malawian team aims to take 42 Bible stories to the various people groups in Malawi. These stories—from ‘Creation to New Creation’—comprise the ‘story set’ used in the ‘School of Storying’. Our Malawian team will be trained to coach Malawian Christians through the ‘Bible Storying’ process. Then our team will do the 5 week training in Malawi in their own language for their own people. 

2)      ‘Chichewa Story Bible’.

To further help Malawians understand the Bible we are developing the ‘Chichewa Story Bible’. The book will contain 30+ Biblical stories selected to tell the story of God’s Kingdom that finds it's fulfillment in Jesus Christ, the ascended Lord of all. Each story will have a couple pages of helps to aid the storyteller (background, context, themes, key verses, fulfilment in Christ).  This book is to be an aid to a ‘storyteller’ and the stories come directly from the Bible and were chosen because of their importance to the overall message of the Bible. We have a Malawian team committed to this project that consists of a publisher, a writer, and several Pastors.  

We are grateful for God graciously guiding and providing for us over the last 12 years and we very much appreciate your prayerful support of this ministry.

Greetings from the ‘land of plenty of consumer choices’,   

We have received a warm reception from a number of friends and churches. Our housing in Woodinville, WA are great and we've been given a very nice car to use. We’ve also enjoyed the tail end of the warm summer weather which appears to be long gone now. 

At the Washington Coast.

Between a two-week visit from Laura’s parents and preaching 8 times since leaving Malawi we’ve found it difficult to reconnect with our ministry partners and partnering churches. This is something we are committed to doing over the coming months.

It’s a

Clara, Katherine and Laura in Seattle.

bit hectic and adjusting to life in the States has been challenging.  

Things have changed here and so have we. There are now 5+ story buildings in Ballard. The skyline and the streets downtown Seattle have changed. We got stuck in downtown traffic and it turned out it was due to the 'HEMPFEST'. Even visiting Grandma has been emotional especially now that my 87 year old Father has early Alzheimer's. He's not doing too badly though he looks and acts much older (I am sure we do too).

At Grandma Stoms' with Laura's parents

Fortunately, we're getting some counselling regarding 're-entering a culture'. We also hope to go to the Missionary Training Institute in Colorado next year. We ask that you pray about God’s vision for our family, our children’s education, our family re-entering American culture and reconnecting with friends and family.

Dear Friends and Family (June 2013)

 

Happy 2013 ABC graduates Timothy and Andrew Mwase.

Hope this finds you well. I recently had the privilege of leading both the baccalaureate service and the graduation ceremony for the African Bible College (Malawi) class of 2013. This year’s class of 70 ABC graduates was our largest class since I came here in 2002. We want to personally thank you for all your prayers and loving support over the past 12 years.
After almost three weeks of grading papers and exams, we are now packing for our upcoming furlough in the states. Now we are trying to discern what to pack, what to store, what to sell and what to give away.



2013 ABC Baccalaureate Service Reception.

Since graduation, I’ve graded 150 x 5 page book reports (Making Disciples of Oral Learners, A. Willis; Christ of the Covenants, OPR), 150 x 3 page exams (Systematic Theology, Old Testament Biblical Theology), and 30 x 6 page papers on the ‘Baptism of the Holy Spirit’. I also listened to 4 x 67 recorded stories from Mark’s gospel with 2 pages of answers to questions on each story. But, I can’t complain because I assigned the work. It has been a great learning experience particularly reading the Malawians response to the ‘Making Disciples of Oral Learners’. Learning how those from an ‘oral culture’ learn through stories, songs, proverbs, drama and ceremonies has changed my approach to ministry. Ironically, God gave us a book that is 90% stories, songs and proverbs.

Please pray for us as we travel from Malawi to South Africa and then on to the Seattle area. I’ll be preaching the next two Sundays (June 30^th, July 7^th) at Presbyterian Churches (CCAP) here in Malawi and then two sermons at an Evangelical Anglican Church in South Africa (July 14^th). We also ask that you consider ‘a special gift’ because our plane tickets are very expensive. Normally we have these funds budgeted but our support has dropped nearly 20% over the past two years and inflation in Malawi is over 100% for the same time period. We are also in need of the use of a vehicle for one year while we are in the Seattle/Portland area (July 22^nd). As you prayerfully consider our requests the following links should help those willing to help.
