The Spoken Project is about people just like you, but not quite like you. They are working 9-5, kicking a ball, writing a poem, taking a shower, making dinner. They are the grief-stricken widow, the young Aboriginal man, the Chinese commerce student, the mother of three. They are extraordinary ordinaries. The Spoken Project tells the stories of people grappling with life, in all its joy and sorrow. Ultimately, it's about God and what he is doing when you're not looking. And when we're not looking, you're going to tell us what he's doing. If you know someone whose story should be told, email thespokenproject.gyles@gmail.com
