Ed Weaver and Chuck Madinger recently participated in the International Orality Network annual conference in Dallas, TX. The conference gathers ministries, businesses and vendors that specialize in reaching oral cultures with Good News. Ed serves on the Executive Committee of ION and chairs the Communications Task Force that posts a great website. (check it out: www.ion.com), and Chuck sits on the Research Task Force. The picture is of Ed reporting to the plenary session on the work of the Communications group. Chuck presented two papers for the research task force – one on better defining orality and the other on comparing communication strategies (mass media, collective media and small media). You can check those out on the T4Global website under “research.”
