Capturing Bryan

20120103-170742.jpg

Bryan Chapell travels from magnetic mini-DV tape across a wire connected to my computer. From there he continues his journey across another wire to the Drobo storage robot that lives like a troll under the desk.

I’ve got him now. Bryan is mine. He can’t get away.

The Geneva Bible Institute is interested in using Bryan and his 2011 Easter sermon to teach French laymen how to preach. In a landscape of bad sermons, this is a good idea. Unfortunately Bryan preaches in English.

In transferring the three angles of Bryan to the Troll’s lair, I’ve passively listened to his sermon just as many times. In my passive analysis, He did very well.

I’d go as far as saying that I’ve never heard someone do so well in an instantaneous translation setting. Way better than Philip Yancey and Brian McLaren.

The most memorable part comes through a question : if you are dead and Christ is alive in you, who are you? Or, si tu es mort et Christ vie en toi, qui es-tu?

The most effective and memorable bi-lingual communication is the simplest. A great day for the cause of simplicity! Well done Bryan!
