Audio Bible Ministry Announces Seven New Recordings

Faith Comes By Hearing, the world’s foremost Audio Bible ministry, announces the availability of seven Audio New Testament recordings.

The following languages are now available for ministry efforts: Afrikaans, Chuj San Mateo Ixtatan, Javanese Caribbean, Kirghiz, Kuranko, Otomi Mezquital and Thai.  These seven languages are primarily spoken in the countries of South Africa, Guatemala, Suriname, Kyrgyzstan, Sierra Leone, Mexico and Thailand.

From the ministry website, www.FaithComesByHearing.com, web users can download these new recordings as well as other MP3 Bibles for free.  

These new offerings, which represent more than 105 million people on four continents, bring the total number of Audio Scriptures available to 341 recordings in 287 languages.  Faith Comes By Hearing’s goal is to record Audio Bibles in 2,000 languages by the year 2016, reaching 97% of the world’s population.  

“More than 50 percent of people don’t have access to the truth and hope in God’s Word,” said Jon D. Wilke, organizational spokesperson.  “They are either unable to read a printed Bible or live on less than $2 a day.  Faith Comes By Hearing is called and currently working to bring the Word of God to the nations in a format that they can use and understand.”

Since the non-profit ministry was founded in 1972, it has been diligently sharing God’s Word with illiterate and underdeveloped communities around the world.  Using the latest digital technologies, Faith Comes By Hearing has developed ministry tools that make God’s Word accessible to those with the least access.  

“With the release of these new recordings, like-minded partners and indigenous pastors can use Audio Bibles on Proclaimers to disciple people through listening groups,” said Wilke.

The Proclaimer is a self-powered audio player that can be used in the most remote and rugged locations and is pre-loaded with the New Testament on an embedded microchip.  Indigenous missionaries take these Proclaimers into villages and communities around the world and start listening groups.  Villagers in groups up to 300 gather around a Proclaimer to listen and then discuss what they just heard.  

“When people hear God’s Word in their heart language, change follows; lives, families, villages, cities and communities are powerfully transformed,” Wilke added.
