About this episode

The episode discusses how to effectively translate the Bible for over one billion people who speak English as a second language.

More than one billion people around the world speak English as a second language. But they don't speak it well and live in cultures where information is passed along orally. So how do we get God's Word into their minds and hearts? Special guest Ian Bultman will help explain that and how you are or can be a part of it.
