Bible translation and audio Bibles are inextricably linked. Let’s talk about New Testament translations and Talking Bibles.Bible translation is an essential mission of the church. Without the work of the Bible translators there are no translations of the New Testament in any of the innumerable spoken languages. Theirs is a foundational work upon which every Audio Bible Ministry currently depends. Bible Translation is an essential, unfinished mission task.
The exciting good news is that in this information age the work of the Bible translators is greatly enhanced when their costly, time consuming, sacrificial labors are also made available as audio recordings and made available in listening devices like the Talking Bible. Instead of the limited number of those learning to read having access to these printed New Testament translations, the vastly larger numbers of preliterate and non-readers have immediate access by hearing them with a digital, audio listening device like our Talking Bible.
Because these two ministries are so foundational and integrally related, I keep calling for all God’s people, churches, Christian businesses, foundations, the Bible Societies and whoever to pray for and to provide the needed funds.
On the website, www.talkingbibles.org learn more Read the encouraging testimonials from people blessed by their having Talking Bibles. I thank you for praying for these essential ministries and for supporting them financially.
Because they need to hear,
