| The Mien Bible Recording Project |
| 11/08/2010 |
| Almost 2 years ago we had great
celebrations upon the completion and printing of
the whole Mien Bible. It is proving to be such a
blessing to have it both in print and also easily
available on the web site – especially for those
who can read it! But of the estimated 1 ½ million
Mien in the world it is likely that fewer than 1 %
can read their own language....Read More |

A million dollar recording? You Bet!
Zig Ziglar molivational speaker and author of 'Confessions of a Happy Christian', once said, "Offer me a million dollars for my tape player, and if I knew I couldn't replace it, I would not take the money."

| 08/01/2007 |
| In many countries across the world, audio Scriptures supplied by organisations such as Talking Bibles International are playing a vital role in bringing God’s Word to people who, for reasons including disability and poor literacy, cannot read the Bible for themselves. It is
often Bible Societies that, in partnership with these organisations, are at the forefront of distributing audio Scriptures in remote communities where even church leaders have a very limited knowledge of the Bible. The following testimonies gathered by Talking Bibles International in Vilanculos, a town on the Indian Ocean in southern Mozambique, give an insight into how positively both individuals and communities are responding to receiving
God’s Word in such an accessible format. Scroll down to page 25 for the Talking Bible article....Read More |
