In this GoMission episode, Mark Gillmore talks with Brother Fletcher about God's call on his life toward Bible translation, unreached people groups, and practical involvement in the Great Commission. Fletcher shares how God moved him from living for himself to surrendering to help reach the unreached, and how the Lord gave both direction and desire as he yielded to God's plan. The conversation also introduces Go Steps, a practical stream of ideas, testimonies, and encouragement designed to help young people take meaningful steps in missions right now. Whether through prayer, encouragement, adopting a people group, sharing testimonies, or simply refusing to get distracted from God's call, every young person can take a step forward in the Great Commission. Topics Discussed Fletcher's upbringing as a missionary kid Surrendering personal dreams to reach the unreached God's direction toward Bible translation and Southeast Asia How God gives joy and desire when we yield to His will The need for Bible translation among unreached people groups Serving churches during deputation instead of merely “getting support” Practical ways young people can be involved in missions now The purpose and launch of Go Steps Encouragement through WhatsApp testimonies and email updates Adopting an unreached people group for prayer Staying focused on God's calling instead of getting distracted Key Takeaways God's will is not a miserable backup plan. When a young person yields to the Lord, God can give joy, desire, and fulfillment in the very calling that once seemed intimidating. You do not have to wait until you are on a foreign field to be involved in the Great Commission. God has placed you in a mission field right now, with friends, family, church, and opportunities already in front of you. Many young people care about missions, but they do not always know what to do next. Go Steps exists to help turn burden into obedience by giving practical ideas and encouragement for taking the next step. Prayer is not a small part of missions. When you pray for unreached people, God can move in ways you may not fully see until eternity. Satan wants young people to get burdened about the lost and then get distracted by the rest of life. The answer is to keep remembering your calling, take the next step, and stay on mission with Jesus. Resources Ready to take the next step in the Great Commission?

In this week's All Things Considered, Richard Littledale explores how the work of Bible translation begun by John Wycliffe still shapes faith, language and culture today. Richard is joined by Robin Peake, Deputy CEO of Wycliffe Bible Translators UK, to ask why Bible translation is far from finished, how new technologies – including AI – are changing the process, and why local voices are increasingly central to the work. We hear firsthand from language consultants involved on the ground, sometimes beginning not with words, but with the creation of an alphabet itself. The programme also reflects closer to home. Welsh speaker Lowri Turner shares how encountering a modern Welsh Bible transformed her faith, while Michael Packianather from Heath Evangelical Church in Cardiff explains how global Bible translation partnerships are influencing local church life in Wales today.

On today's program, Minnesota pastors—a husband and wife team—have been accused by the Attorney General's Office of misusing more than $2 million of ministry funds for personal use. We'll take a look. And, author and speaker Jada Edwards on how her journey to radical generosity reshaped her marriage, ministry, and faith. We'll have details. Plus, Daystar TV co-founder Joni Lamb dies after health complications. She was 65. But first, the FBI has charged a woman with threatening federal agents involved in the prosecution of David E. Taylor and his Kingdom of God Global Church. Before we leave today, I want to mention that I'm in Nashville for the annual meeting of the Evangelical Press Association's annual meeting, and MinistryWatch received four awards for excellence this year. Stories by me, by Kim Roberts, by Tony Mator won individual prizes. And MinistryWatch as a whole won an award for overall excellence. I just want to thank the entire staff here at MinistryWatch for their excellent work, and I want to thank you, our listeners, readers, and donors, for making our work possible. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth. Writers who contributed to today's program include Jessica Etturalde, Tony Mator, Kim Roberts, Marci Seither, Dan Burrell, Stacey Horton, and Bob Smietana.

The Bible we hold is a translation of ancient manuscripts. But does that gap between the original autographs and our English Bibles introduce error we should be worried about? In Lesson 27 of Christian Ethics and the Old Testament, Dave Rich works through the transmission and translation of Scripture—and makes the case that we have every reason for confidence.Rich opens with the logic: reliable manuscripts plus faithful translation equals God's Word in English. Either piece can fail, and he walks through what happens when it does. From there he examines the manuscript evidence for the Old Testament—the Masoretic Text, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the Septuagint—showing that agreement across those sources is remarkably stable. The one significant variant, Psalm 22:16, turns out to have strong textual support for "they pierced my hands and feet," consistent with its unmistakably messianic context.New Testament transmission is even more extensively attested—over 5,800 Greek manuscripts, with 99.5% of the text determinable from existing evidence. Rich walks through the nature of the variants honestly, showing that the most significant ones are well known, clearly marked in modern translations, and doctrinally non-threatening.The lesson closes with a survey of English translations across a spectrum from highly literal to outright corrupt: the YLT, NASB, LSB, ESV, NIV, New Living, and then the Message, the New World Translation, the Passion Translation, and several others that distort the text to serve a theological agenda.God had a purpose in giving His Word, Rich argues, and that same providence extends to its transmission and translation into every language. ★ Support this podcast ★

In this episode, we continue our examination of the reliability of the Bibles that we have access to today. Alan Hitchen joins us again to discuss the methods the translators used in translating the Bibles and some important considerations in choosing which translation to use. We will discuss: Two fundamental passages that sum up how God ensured that mankind would have access to the truth as he intended it. Word for word translations and what that means. How even the grammar in the Bible is inspired. Thought for thought translations and how they differ from word for word translations. The importance of using reliable translations. biblequestions.org

In "Making Sense of Bible Translations," Pastor Chris Bonts speaks to the different translations of the Bible that are out there. In his message, he shares that words have ranges of meaning, English changes over time, and clarity requires interpretation. Various Scriptures were used in this message.

From ROI to EROI: How One Entrepreneur Is Helping Eradicate Bible Poverty by 2033 What happens when a retail entrepreneur has a Holy Spirit moment at a Bible dedication ceremony in Guatemala — and never looks at business the same way again? In this episode, host Justin Forman sits down with Mart Green, co-founder of Mardel Christian bookstores and a driving force behind Illuminations, a collective impact initiative uniting Bible translation organizations around the world with one audacious goal: eradicate Bible poverty by 2033. Mart shares the origin story of Illuminations — from a small table of five CEOs and five resource partners meeting monthly in a Dallas airport admirals club — to a movement now involving 300+ people from dozens of organizations who've helped accelerate Bible translation from a projected finish date of 2150 down to 2041, with faith believing for 2033. He also opens up about his family's mission statement, his daily rhythm in God's Word, and what stewardship really looks like when you stop being an owner and start being a steward. Key Topics: The Guatemala moment that shifted Mart's lens from ROI to EROI (Eternal Return on Investment) How Illuminations was built brick by brick — starting with three organizations and growing to a 300-person annual gathering The Stanford Collective Impact framework — and the sixth element Stanford missed (communal prayer) How AI and technology are accelerating Bible translation, cutting projected timelines by decades Why generosity, humility, and integrity are the only character traits Mart looks for in a partner The Green family mission statement: "Love God intimately. Live extravagant generosity." Mart's daily scripture rhythm and the O-I-O-I framework (Open, Insight, Obey, Intimacy) Notable Quotes: "In that moment, I kind of went from ROI to EROI. What's the eternal return on investment?" — Mart Green "Satan always attacks at the point of unity. I guess it's because it's powerful." — Mart Green "There's only two things that last forever — God's Word and the souls of men and women. So if I can get those two combined, it's less of a responsibility." — Mart Green About the Guest: Mart Green is a second-generation entrepreneur and son of Hobby Lobby founder David Green. He co-founded Mardel Christian bookstores at age 19 and has since become a major force in faith-based philanthropy. He is a key resource partner in Illuminations, the world's largest Bible translation collective impact initiative, which is working to ensure that every people group has access to God's Word in their heart language by 2033. Mart and his family of 50 — all living in Oklahoma City — operate from a shared mission: to love God intimately and live extravagant generosity.

Uncover the hidden truths of the ancient world as legendary researcher Jordan Maxwell deconstructs the foundational narratives of modern religion. In this thought-provoking episode, Maxwell explores the Elohim meaning and reveals how critical Bible mistranslations have obscured the true origins of humanity.Maxwell bridges the gap between ancient Anunnaki history and modern geopolitics, suggesting that we are living in a time of Tohu wa-Bohu, a cosmic waste and desolation. Is the mysterious Nibiru planet returning to reset our civilization once again?Join Jordan Maxwell as he challenges everything you thought you knew about prehistory and the "End Times."Jordan Maxwell has spent his life exploring the unseen architecture of reality, the symbols, stories, and cosmic forces that shape humanity from the shadows. His work bridges astrotheology, ancient religions, secret societies, extraterrestrial encounters, aliens, UFOs and the esoteric foundations of Christianity, revealing a universe far stranger and more interconnected than most ever imagine.For decades, Jordan illuminated how the heavens guided ancient mythmakers, how sacred texts concealed astronomical and spiritual codes, and how non-human intelligences have accompanied humanity since the dawn of time. His work shows that behind every religious ritual, political symbol, and celestial myth lies a deeper truth waiting to be uncovered. Jordan Maxwell is not just a researcher, he is a keeper of forgotten knowledge.His teachings, interviews and lectures continue to inspire seekers who feel the pull toward hidden wisdom, cosmic spirituality, and the mysteries that bind heaven, earth, and the worlds beyond.Spirit Realm: Angels Demons, Spirits and the Sovereignty of God (Foreword by Jordan Maxwell) https://amzn.to/31g9ydR

In this episode, we walk through four key texts surrounding Jesus' death and resurrection. We examine how the messianic prophesy of Isaiah 53:7 should be properly translated (hint: every English translation is missing something). We look at the significance of Jesus' response before the high priestly court in Matthew 26:63-65: "You have said so." We dig into the complicated question of what language Jesus was speaking when he cried out "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me" in Matthew 27:46 and Mark 15:34. We unpack the way Psalm 22 serves as a motif in the passion narrative. And we detail the meaningful textual nuances of the restoration of Peter in John 21:15-19.Kevin Grasso has an M.A. in Linguistics with a concentration in Bible Translation from Dallas International University, an MA in Comparative Religion from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and a PhD in Hebrew Language from Hebrew University.

A @Christadelphians Video: [Inspiring] Have you ever wondered why there are so many different English versions of the Bible? Is it simply a matter of preference, or is there something more profound at work? In this thought-provoking and insightful exposition, we begin a new series exploring the wonderful, yet complex, world of Bible translation. This opening episode tackles the fundamental challenge: we often approach Scripture like a mathematical equation, seeking a single, definitive answer. However, language is far more nuanced and beautiful than that.Join us as we reveal why translation is so complicated and why this reality should inspire humility and a deeper appreciation for God's Word. We'll look at the Hebrew of Genesis 1:1, uncovering hidden details about "the heavens" and the significance of "a beginning." We'll also explore how comparing different translations can unlock powerful connections, like the revealing link between King Saul and the "pomegranate" in 1 Samuel. This is an outstanding foundation for anyone wanting to understand their Bible on a deeper level.**Chapters:**00:00 - Introduction: Why So Many Versions?01:55 - The Core Message: Translation is Complicated04:29 - The Big Idea: Math vs. Language08:07 - Why "I Have Hunger" Doesn't Work10:40 - Genesis 1:1: A Case Study in Complexity15:46 - The Mystery of the "Two Heavens"17:09 - "In a Beginning": The Grammar of Genesis 124:51 - A Translation is a Commentary26:51 - Wisdom from the King James Translators30:45 - The Advantage of Multiple Translations: King Saul's Pomegranate35:25 - Looking Ahead: Translation Philosophy36:53 - Conclusion**Bible Verses:**

You probably never heard about Insider Bible translations. Don't worry. Few Christians, pastors or church mission committees have. But it's past time we learn about them and the risks they pose.Insider Bible translations remove or change Scriptural terms in an attempt to make them more attractive, or less offensive, to the Lost. These well-intentioned efforts have quietly spread into several missional contexts. But is it proper? How are Christians to make sense of what can be an intimidating, technical issue?Fortunately, help has arrived. The Arlington Statement on Bible Translation was published in 2020 and provides a simple framework to draw clarity from the confusion.On this encore Christian Emergency Podcast, Andy dives into these important issues with two amazing guests from Horizons International: Pierre Houssney, their executive director, and Seth Vitrano-Wilson, their director of biblical translations.If you are blessed by this episode, please leave us a five-star rating.

What if the way you've been reading Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John your entire life has caused you to miss the point? Dr. Jeannine Brown, David Price Professor of Biblical and Theological Foundations at Bethel Seminary and member of the NIV Committee on Bible Translation, joins the show to challenge everything you thought you knew about studying the Gospels. After 25+ years training pastors and translating Scripture, Dr. Brown reveals why reading the Gospels in fragments robs us of the themes, the character development, and the narrative power the Gospel writers intended us to experience.This conversation will transform how you prepare sermons, lead Bible studies, and engage Scripture personally. Dr. Brown walks us through plot and theme analysis, shows how the disciples function as characters in Matthew's narrative, unpacks the stunning intertextual connection between Jesus's "77 times" forgiveness teaching and the revenge cycle of Lamech in Genesis 4, and even pulls back the curtain on how narrative context shapes NIV translation decisions. If you've ever felt like you were missing something when you opened the Gospels, this episode is for you.In this episode you will learn:-The most common mistake people make when reading the Gospels and how to fix it-How the early church actually experienced these texts (hint: they didn't stop after eight verses)-Why ancient biographies were arranged by theme, not just chronology, and what that means for interpretation-How to identify and trace themes across an entire Gospel like hospitality in Luke-The way Matthew uses the disciples as "little faith" characters to shape our understanding of Jesus-A powerful intertextual connection between Matthew 18 and Genesis 4 that reframes forgiveness-How narrative thinking should change your sermon preparation on passages like the feeding of the 5,000-Why each Gospel tells the story of Jesus with distinctive emphasis and how to appreciate that-How narrative context influenced the NIV's translation of Matthew 8:7 as a question-What the "Son of Man coming" language from Daniel 7 actually means across Matthew's GospelConnect with Dr. Jeannine Brown:Bethel Seminary Faculty PageHer Books on Amazon:The Gospels as StoriesScripture as CommunicationPhilippians (Tyndale Commentary)Subscribe and follow The Dig In Podcast:YouTubeFollow Johnny Ova:https://linktr.ee/johnnyovaGet Johnny's book, The Revelation Reset

Is the work of Bible translation done? What impact does it have when the Bible is translated into a new language?One in five people across the world do not have access to the Bible in their language, around 1.5 billion people. Translating the Bible in these languages not only allows them to read God's word in their first language, but has many more benefits including evangelism, church growth, refuting false religion, and literacy levels.In this episode, we are joined by James Poole (Executive Director, Wycliffe Bible Translators) to explain the work of Bible translation, its impact in different areas of life, and how it plays a vital role in world mission.Find out more about Wycliffe Bible Translators: https://wycliffe.org.uk/.About In:Dependence: In:Dependence is FIEC's official podcast, where you'll hear conversations on topics for church leaders.Podcast music: Drifting by ⁠⁠Future Infinite⁠⁠.About FIEC: We are ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠a fellowship of Independent churches⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ with members of the family across England, Scotland and Wales.

In this off-the-cuff chat, Don and I talk about why we trust the King James Bible as God's perfectly preserved word for English speakers. We compare it to modern versions like the NASB, NIV, and ESV, point out real differences (like "only begotten Son" in John 3:16), look at missing verses and sketchy footnotes, and explain why this stuff actually matters for your faith and growth. We also touch on the whole "archaic words" thing, the helps that are out there, and why the most important part is just to keep reading your Bible every day.

What if a simple Easter reading turned into a four–year journey to make Scripture clear, warm, and deeply readable? That's the path Dan Parr took, blending his craft as a professional voice actor with a steady, faithful approach to translation so more people can encounter the Bible without tripping over dated language or dense phrasing. Guided by Proverbs 16:3, Dan shares how reluctance gave way to calling, and how prayer plus meticulous research shaped a version that preserves meaning while speaking directly to modern listeners.We dig into the nuts and bolts: starting with the public–domain World English Bible, refining verse by verse, and validating choices against trusted translations like NIV, NLT, RSV, and NET. Dan explains why concision matters for comprehension, how he updates ancient measures and terms, and what it took to tackle challenging books like Corinthians without thinning the theology. As a narrator, he reveals how pacing, tone, and pauses turn text into an immersive, living experience—one reason thousands of hours have already been streamed on Audible.Accessibility sits at the heart of this story. Dan outlines flexible ways to engage Scripture—chronological and traditional orders, start-any-month reading plans, and single-book editions for focused study—so newcomers and seasoned readers alike can find an on-ramp that fits real life. We also look ahead to Dad's Words to Gen Z, a year of short daily devotionals crafted to encourage a generation navigating doubt, purpose, and identity with a steady fatherly voice.If you're curious about how faith and craft can work together to serve readers, or you're searching for a Bible you can actually stick with, this conversation brings practical ideas and heartfelt insight. Listen, share it with someone who's been hesitant to open a Bible, and tell us which passage you want to hear in a fresh voice.

This episode is part of the Restoration Theology class. Would you agree that every translation of the Bible has some sort of bias in it? Even the most literal translations have a good deal of bias baked into them. What can we do? Well, you could learn Hebrew and Greek so you can read the Bible for yourself instead of depending on a translation. Ok, but if you don’t have the inclination, motivation, or time to do that, what can you do? This episode of Restoration Theology is going to take you step by step through an English-only process of detecting bias in translation. You’ll learn a little about the translation process as well as how to spot bias in translation.

The number of English Versions has exploded in recent years. Why? How are they different? What should you consider and what should you avoid? We'll look at the history of the English Bible, and Dr Jeannie will share some of her personal experiences in doing translation work.

Which Bible translation should you actually trust, and are there some translations you should avoid altogether?  In this episode, you'll learn: How different Bible translations are created and why that matters Which translations are best for reading, studying, and teaching Why some translations weaken clarity and conviction How Jesus used Scripture to defeat temptation Why temptation itself is not sin, and how to recognize the real battle The three predictable ways Satan tempts every person How authority, dominion, and redemption fit into the biblical story Why “It is written” is more than a phrase...it's a strategy Pastor Josh and Jana Howerton help you read the Bible with confidence, confront temptation with clarity, and see Scripture as one unified story, rather than a collection of disconnected verses. Watch to the end; this will sharpen how you read the Bible and live it out.

In our latest episode, Reagan Kramer welcomes back Pastor Doug Van Dorn as they explore the complexities of Bible translations as it relates to key supernatural verses,  the concept of the divine council, nephilim and the historical changes in interpretation that have shaped modern understanding of scripture. They discuss the significance of the 'sons of God' in biblical texts, the impact of second-century rabbinical changes, and the role of scribes in preserving the integrity of the Bible. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding these elements to grasp the full majesty of Jesus and the richness of the gospel.Doug dives into the significance of the Nephilim and their origins in relation to Genesis 6 and why it matters.  HIs insights bring clarity to often misunderstood passages, making this a must-listen for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Bible.  This conversation is not just for theologians, but for anyone interested in understanding the nuances of scripture and its historical interpretations.   Doug Van Dorn opens the conversation by addressing a common concern among Christians: "How can I trust my Bible if what you're saying is true?" He reassures listeners that while there are textual differences across translations, the Bible remains trustworthy.

Greg highlights the distinction between descriptive and prescriptive passages in the Bible then answers questions about a pro-choice challenge, helping someone in memory care, baptismal regeneration, responding to “Love is my religion,” animal blessings, and Bible translations.   Topics: Commentary: Descriptive vs. prescriptive (00:00) If someone says that if you're pro-life then you should be against capital punishment, then couldn't I flip that around and say that if a pro-choicer says a woman has the authority over her body to kill her unborn child, then he should be fine with her killing herself? (10:00) What can I give a person in memory care to help them? (22:00) Is it a dealbreaker if a church you're going to believes in baptismal regeneration, and is this salvation by works? (28:00) How would you respond to someone who said, “Love is my religion”? (36:00) What is up with animal blessings? (44:00) Is the New World Translation not called the “Holy Bible” because they changed too much in the text?

The conversation emphasizes the importance of accessibility and comprehension in scripture study. Key Insights The Church’s handbook now states that while members should generally use a preferred or church-published edition of the Bible, other translations may also be used, reflecting a shift towards inclusivity and understanding. Many individuals struggle with the King James Version due to its higher reading level, which can hinder their engagement with the scriptures. Simpler translations can provide clarity and accessibility. Various Bible translations, such as the English Standard Version (ESV) and New International Version (NIV), can help bridge the gap for those who find the King James Version challenging, making the scriptures more relatable and understandable. The discussion highlights the importance of using different translations in teaching settings to enhance comprehension and engagement, particularly for youth and those unfamiliar with the King James Version. Leaders are encouraged to create an inclusive environment in classes where all translations are respected, fostering a space for discussion and learning. Leadership Applications Leaders can promote the use of various Bible translations in their classes to help members better understand scriptural principles, especially for those who may struggle with traditional texts. By being aware of the reading levels of different translations, leaders can guide individuals to resources that suit their comprehension needs, ensuring that everyone can access the teachings of the scriptures. Encouraging open discussions about different translations can help create a welcoming atmosphere in church settings, allowing members to feel comfortable sharing their insights and questions without fear of judgment. 00:02:44 – Guest Introduction: John Hilton III 00:03:26 – Classroom Applications of Bible Translations 00:04:08 – John Hilton’s Projects with Scripture Central 00:04:50 – Changes in Church Handbook Regarding Bible Translations 00:08:34 – Discussion on Handbook Changes 00:14:33 – Historical Context of Bible Translations 00:19:07 – Addressing Concerns About Modern Translations 00:21:18 – Recommendations for Bible Translations 00:24:31 – Using Different Translations for Comprehension 00:26:04 – Importance of Accessible Translations for Youth 00:28:01 – Anticipating Classroom Dynamics with Various Translations 00:30:21 – Creating a Respectful Classroom Environment 00:32:51 – Teaching Strategies for Engaging with Scriptures 00:41:18 – The Role of Listening to Scripture 00:44:10 – Speculation on Future Translations of Church Scriptures 00:47:44 – Encouraging Leaders to Support Comprehension in Others The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints’ mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

Pastor Tim and Andrew Henry discuss Helen Andrews' article "The Great Feminization," in which she presents this thesis: "Wokeness is not a new ideology, an outgrowth of Marxism, or a result of post-Obama disillusionment. It is simply feminine patterns of behavior applied to institutions where women were few in number until recently."Is she right? Has God made men and women different? Does His Word clearly define the differences? Has the church been faithful to uphold His Word as our standard?The episode concludes with a discussion of the feminization and bowdlerization of English translations of Scripture.Also mentioned:Carol Gilligan's In a Different Voice (1982)Andrew Jackson, speaking of Marshall's opinion in Worcester v.
