What God is Saying

Sing to the LORD; praise his name. Each day proclaim the good news that he saves. Publish his glorious deeds among the nations. Tell everyone about the amazing things he does. — Psalm 96:2-3

Help your kids learn about Bible translation...great free 8-week curriculum!

I just came across a wonderful program for getting us and our children involved in Bible translation. But before I go further, you should watch this quick, 1-minute video with your kids: Without

It's called OneVerse and it's free. You can go to OneVerse to learn more about it. It's an 8-week program that started March 1st but you can get the previous weeks until mid-June. It looks great! I plan to start with out girls today!

 Here's a peak at just a few of the things you and your kids can do if you register:
  • Meet Lisa - your video blogging OneVerse tour guide!
  • Read about heroes of modern Bible translation.
  • Discover a language that is spoken ... and whistled. (Yes: people can understand each other solely by whistling!)
  • Find out why some believers in Papua New Guinea say "Jesus carries his liver for me." (Can you guess what this means? Find out in Week 3!)
  • Enjoy age-appropriate, fun activities related to each week's theme.
  • Read about Kaylee's big decision to change her priorities and care about people on the other side of the world.
  • Discover an alphabet that has only 11 letters!
  • Listen to John 3:16 in a new language each week.
  • Watch a video of the startling things that happen when the Gamo people watch the "JESUS" film in their own language for the very first time.

Thanks for featuring this! May God use what you are doing to open kids' eyes (and moms' eyes) to how they can help bring God's Word to the many without it.

Blessings!

Thanks for encouraging people to pray for missions work, that's so important.

Do you think you could link to the Bibleless Peoples Prayer Project on your blog? www.wycliffe.org/bppp

Nate...thanks so much for the suggestion. I just posted it under the Pray heading. And I just signed up to start praying for a language...I have already been praying for the Hui people in China for awhile now.
