THE GOSPEL IN EVERY LANGUAGE

In 2022, SRV embarked on our most ambitious project ever. We partnered with other Bible translation organizations to create a process for oral people to understand and translate the Word of God. Many people have never heard, read, or experienced God’s Word in a language that speaks to their hearts. We want to change that.

Our Translation Project provides quality, easy-to-use resources to help the global church translate the Bible and give hope to those without his Word. As we partner with the local church, we develop resources within the church to make God’s Word accessible to everyone and immediately useful in their communities.

Here are three distinctives of The Translation Project.

1. We are church-focused. We believe Bible translation is a ministry of the local church. Our translation process equips people around the world to translate the Bible and create highquality oral drafts of Scripture passages.

2. We are resource-focused. We provide exegetical tools for Bible translation for every book of the Bible. These tools include book introductions, audio files, and a video Bible dictionary to ensure that each passage of Scripture is understood and then translated in one’s heart language.

3. We are partner-focused. We walk alongside pastors, leaders, translators, and the local community, investing in their lives and partnering with them to make the Word accessible and practical as they grow and reach the lost.

We believe God wants his Word in every language. Oral people need to understand Scripture in their hearts, so they can spread the saving message of Jesus Christ. This three-year project has already received 62 percent of the necessary funding. We are currently seeking the remaining 38 percent of funding from generous Christians and churches who want to see God’s Word reach more people in more places.
