Our philosophy of ministry is based on four pillars:
Focus on Oral Learners
2/3 of the world’s population can’t, don’t, or won’t read. We believe the most strategic way to reach the world for Christ is to focus on this majority.
Empower Local Leaders
We believe faithful, indigenous people are the most effective at ministering within their respective communities (catalytic role).
Tailored Content
We honor unique oral traditions by providing Scripture in the heart language of the communities we serve.
Scripture Engagement
God’s Word is meant for engagement. We believe the Great Commission is every Christian’s calling, so it is our goal is to see oral Bible content used by local believers to transform lives and make disciples who make disciples.
Bring light to unreached oral communities around the world.
Lives can change with something as simple as a spoken word. But we can’t deliver Truth without you. Will you join us in the effort to make disciples of all nations?
One of the Ncircire translators shared her excitement about these Bible passages being hers -- that she can now recount the passages naturally and will even sing them while walking down the road. She said, “It makes me feel free to use my own language. I want all my people to hear the stories.” One of the Shua translators teaches the passages in the church he attends, and he exclaimed with a big smile, “We have such great attendance only because we can tell these scripture passages in our heart language now!”
I am so happy to hear the message of King Solomon, in a language that I can understand simply and clearly. I used to read the Bible in another language, but sometimes it was too difficult for me to comprehend, and I believe, because of this translation, many people will be able to better understand God’s Word.”
Najlaa, a housewife, helped with an Oral Bible Translation community review check and was presented with the story of Joseph for feedback. She listened to the Bible story for more than half an hour and said she enjoyed listening to the audio story because it was easy to follow and understand. She noted that she gets stuck with some difficult concepts and expressions when she reads the Bible, making her lose interest in reading. But with the oral translation of Bible stories into her heart language, she can easily listen and comprehend with no barriers!
"Stories are serving us more than preaching because everybody pays attention to the story. As a result, more people are coming to God. People are taking the initiative, gathering on their own, and sharing the stories while a wise person highlights the points. We need more stories."
