yali
The story of how God entered their world and spoke His Word. This is the story of a community of Stone-Age people living in the mountain jungles of Papua (formerly Irian Jaya). Until the 1960s, the Yali existed without any idea of a world beyond their own isolated villages. They were cannibals, warriors, and lived in fear of evil spirits.

Missionaries entered their world, learned the Yali language and culture, taught the Yali to read and write, and translated with them the most published book in the world – the Bible. The Yali no longer live in fear but live with faith, hope and love. This story documents the transformation of the Yali people from Stone-Age cannibals to scholars translating the Bible. The gospel of Jesus Christ transformed their hearts. Their churches are packed and sending Yali missionaries to other parts of Indonesia.

Sure to encourage your faith, this is a great resource to share with a group. Includes: documentary in 3 lengths: 28, 15 or 5 minutes; plus additional commentary and features.
