So anyway at work we had to...

Missionaries usually go to great efforts to help people understand what they've been doing - slide shows, visual props, memory aids. I saw it done differently the other day. My friend Jill came to my Bible study group and just told us a bit about what she's going to do. Then she answered our questions. The simplicity of her presentation actually helped me to understand what it will be like where she's going. I think that a more glitzy presentation can draw attention to cultural differences and make listeners doubt their ability to comprehend. But the way Jill did it was just like listening to someone talk about something that happened at work.
