Did you ever get to a store and find the CLOSED sign in the window, when you thought for sure the place was open? It can be frustrating, can’t it?
For the 80% of the world’s population who are oral learners (who can’t, don’t, or won’t read), the Bible can seem to have a CLOSED sign on it. Perhaps the Bible is not available in their language, or they can’t read and the Bible in their language is only in written form.
They are unable to learn God’s Word and His promises, obey God’s Word, or share God’s Word with others.
Praise God that’s changing—because of your generosity!
God is using your prayers and financial support to help OPEN the truth of God’s Word to thousands of people through Audio Scripture Ministries (ASM)! You are helping people like ASM partner Yusef* in South Asia to OPEN God’s Word to those eager to hear. Yusef writes this exciting report from a pastor:
“Our work has become much easier. Thank you for giving us audio Bibles. Many people (such as this lady, pictured, with face veiled for cultural reasons) were asking if there is any way for them to hear the Word of God in their mother tongue, as they cannot read. Now with the audio Bibles, it’s become a powerful tool to share the Word of God in a language they understand. Now more and more people are requesting it for their families. Families are listening together, allowing the Scripture to teach them in ways that were once impossible.‘”
God’s Word is now OPEN to these believers, many of whom live in areas hostile to the Gospel, because you prayed and gave. Thank you for sharing the hope of Jesus!
Prayerfully and expectantly,
