StoryOne • Vision - to bring Deaf people through every sign language to know and worship Jesus Christ the Lord and Savior • Network -An international network of Deaf-led churches and partners whose mission is to make Deaf disciples of all Deaf peoples through Biblical stories and storying methods
StoryOne • Purpose - to lead Deaf-led Churches that use Biblical stories and storying methods to disciple and train • StoryOne Bible - A portion of the Biblical stories and scripture passages foundational to the evangelism and discipleship of each target Deaf people group is available in the heart language
StoryOne • Partnership - to involve Deaf nationals in each country to work together in evangelism, discipleship, church planting and Bible translation. • Empowerment - to empower Deaf nationals to accomplish the Great Commission by training, mentoring and leading
Our Work • We do not advocate a strict adherence to verse by verse translation methods. We also advocate the practice of combining the task of translation with a strategy to put the scripture quickly into use (evangelism, discipleship, church planting) • We focus on CBS storying based on the Deaf culture
StoryOne Sets • 5 + 5 + 5 (20 stories) • Sermons on the Mount (35 stories) • Spiritual Warfare (30 stories) • Prayer (20 stories) • God - Who? (5 stories) • More sets
