Purchase link for Great Story CD
The Great Story
... from the Sacred Book is the title of the new resource produced by Rain Song!
In Podcast #124 we interviewed Terry Wildman about his work and this ministry. This is the Bible storytelling project in Native American English that he mentioned in that episode. It is now completed!
Their website says this about the new CD release, available now: "This is a condensed version of the narrative of the Bible told in First Nations Storytelling style. Terry tells the story while (his wife) Darlene adds the cedar flutes to the background".
As Terry says on the CD: "This project is an effort to tell the story of the Bible in a way that relates the message of Jesus to First Nations People".

Do you understand "Dublin"?
Some may find this wacky. Some may find it unhelpful. Some may find the Dublin accents hard to understand.
One thing is for certain it is quite something to hear young 1960s Irish Catholic school children telling their school teacher (and the national TV station!) the stories of Jesus in their own words!
You may find the cartoon "overdub" uncomfortable. Then again maybe not. If the visuals bother you, shut your eyes and listen and enjoy little children tell what they know about stories of Jesus' life.
Here are some links to the "Give Up Yer Aul Sins" film made at the time, and, appearing for our enjoyment on YouTube. The following are some of my favourites:
The Birth of Jesus
Give Up Yer Aul Sins
The Easter Story
The voices are real 'live' recordings of young children, and the stories were not told in jest. Pretty amazing, eh?
