Music Drew Sylvester to Church—God’s Word Changed His Life Sylvester loves to sing! His journey to faith began with a love for music, not Scripture. As a child, he was forced to attend church by his parents, but he had no real interest in Christianity. It wasn’t the sermons that captured his heart—it was the choir. Singing with others was the only part of church that resonated with him. Years later, after getting married, that same love for music drew him back to church, and he rejoined the choir. Spending time in church and among believers, his faith began to grow. His wife noticed the change, and soon she followed him. Sylvester admits that before returning, he lived a worldly life, but as his faith deepened, he left many of his old ways behind. Yet, despite his love for worship, Scripture still felt distant. Reading had never come easily to him, and during sermons, he often felt lost. But just as music stirred his soul, so did God’s Word —once he had the chance to hear it. Everything changed when Sylvester received a Talking Bible. “When I first heard the Gospel on the Talking Bible, it opened my heart in a way I never imagined. The words that were once just words on a page now came alive to me. That’s when my life truly began to change.” For the first time, Scripture spoke to him personally . The Gospel wasn’t just something he heard in church—it became part of his daily life. Naturally, Sylvester wanted to share his gift with others. He started a small listening group at his church, where 15 people gather every Friday to hear Scripture together. The group, which includes both literate and illiterate members, benefits from the Talking Bible’s inclusivity— everyone, regardless of their ability to read, can listen and grow in faith together. Through these weekly gatherings, lives are changing. Some members, who once rarely attended church, are now active members. Others have found strength to overcome harmful habits. Now, Sylvester sings for the Lord with a heart transformed by faith . His love for music led him back to church, but it was hearing God’s Word through the Talking Bible that changed his life forever. Now, he dreams of every member of his group having their own Talking Bible so they can continue growing in faith beyond their weekly meetings. Will you help make this dream a reality? P.S. Your gift is more than a donation—it’s equipping someone with the life-changing power of God’s Word. 

Bharathamma’s family is growing in faith and sharing God’s love with others. “ I can learn the Word of God from the Talking Bible,” says Bharathamma. “Personally, I’m getting encouraged every time I listen. ” Bharathamma’s story is one of transformation and hope. Living in a small farming village in India, she never had the opportunity to go to school. Like many women in her community, she spent her life raising children and working in the fields. Fourteen years ago, when she became a follower of Jesus, she longed to read the Bible. But unable to read, she relied on her pastor’s Sunday sermons, memorizing scripture as best as she could. Her pastor often repeated Bible stories just so she could retain every word. A year ago, everything changed. Bharathamma’s pastor gave her a Talking Bible. For the first time, she could hear the scriptures in her own home, not just on Sundays. She began listening to God’s Word for an hour every day with her son and daughter-in-law. The results have been life-changing. Her daughter-in-law, who had previously professed faith but stopped attending church, and her son, who had been distant from the faith, started listening with her. Over the course of a year, the scriptures began to work in their hearts. Now, the entire family attends church together every week. “ Easily I can understand now,” Bharathamma says. “It’s really good to have the Talking Bible in my family. I keep it safe so that I can use it for a long time. ” Stories like Bharathamma’s are happening across India, where millions of people cannot read but long to know God’s Word.
