Why Audio Scripture? Oral Cultures and the Heart Language

With a Bible translation consultant

Most of the world learns, decides, and worships out loud. A Bible translation consultant joins Mission Compass to explain orality: why a printed Bible can sit unread in a village that would gather nightly around an audio player, and why hearing Scripture in your heart language lands differently than any second language ever can.

We also talk about the partnership pipeline: translators finish the recording, Galcom builds the player, local churches do the ministry.
