Six African people groups will now have access to God’s Word in audio

To the Yao people in Malawi, the Bible is off-limits.

In this small African country, God’s Word is not illegal, banned or restricted by the government.  Rather, only five percent of the Yao people are able to read their own language, making the power and promises of God inaccessible to nearly two million people.
 

Free Audio Bibles Reach Close to Home
 
Neckties, collect calls and greeting cards – that’s what most dads in America get for Father’s Day gifts.  But this year will be different for many fathers who attend church June 15.  More than 37,000 Audio Bibles will be given out this Father’s Day as part of a Bible listening campaign called You’ve Got The Time.
 

Audio Bibles are reaching the farthest corners of the earth. 

In the Brazilian rain forest, the small village of Makita sits along the muddy banks of an Amazon River tributary.  When the conditions are ideal, the trip takes two days by boat.

Jeff Scott, an American church leader, and his short-term mission team arrive at Makita and are welcomed by the villagers and swarms of mosquitoes and flies.

Audio Bibles are being deployed, from “boot camp” and barracks rooms to base chapels and war zones.  Faith Comes By Hearing, the world’s foremost Audio Bible ministry, is taking the “Support the Troops” slogan seriously.  This innovative ministry has teamed up with hundreds of active-duty and reserve chaplains to bring God’s Word in audio to U.S. troops and their families stationed worldwide.

Pastors agree; Audio Bibles are getting church-goers engaged in God’s Word. Nationally recognized research organizations found that 65 percent of adults who identified themselves as "Bible readers" haven’t read the entire New Testament.  Another survey of 500 pastors revealed that “lack of time” was the No. 1 reason why Christians aren’t reading their Bibles.

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

“As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.  ‘Don’t be alarmed,’ he said.  ‘You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified.  He has risen!  He is not here.’”

Faith Comes By Hearing, the world’s premier Audio Bible ministry, announces the availability of five new Audio New Testament Recordings.

Audio Bibles are suiting up.  Hundreds of student athletes across college campuses are listening to God’s Word in audio.  In fact, student athletes from more than 20 major universities, including Auburn, Stanford, Rutgers and Virginia Tech, will listen through the entire New Testament as part of a campaign called You’ve Got The Time.  In this volunteer Bible listening initiative, participants listen through the entire New Testament by devoting 28 minutes a day for only 40 days. 

Faith Comes By Hearing, the world’s premier Audio Bible ministry, made front page headlines recently.  On page A1 of the Saturday, Feb. 16th Albuquerque Journal, the headline read “’Proclaimer’ Gets The Word Out.’”  To read the full article, click here.
