TTW in Japanese & Afrikaans!

January 26, 2019 by Kris Langham 4 Comments

Hello Through the Word!
Pastor Kris here with some really amazing news. Our Start Here plan for new believers just launched in two new languages on the YouVersion Bible app. We are now in Japanese and Afrikaans! How awesome is that?!! We’re teaming up with the awesome team at YouVersion to translate Start Here into more than sixty languages, and these two are the first to launch. I can’t even tell you how fun and amazing this is for me. We’ll be adding more and more languages over the next few months. For now, the plan is just text – no audio (but we’re hoping for audio in the future!). If you know anyone who speaks one of those languages, you can share it with them here:

Afrikaans: https://bible.com/af/reading-plans/13502-start-here-first-steps-with-jesus

Japanese: https://bible.com/ja/reading-plans/13502-start-here-first-steps-with-jesus

English: https://bible.com/reading-plans/13502-start-here-first-steps-with-jesus

Our vision for this plan is to create a discipleship tool for new believers in many languages – one that’s easy for anyone to share for free anytime. You can share it now – in English! Just share the link to the plan with someone who’s interested in checking out Jesus and the Bible. They can check it out on their own – or you can follow the plan with them!  As these catch on, we hope to follow up with audio plans – just like the TTW ones you love!  (Note: The graphics for the plan will be translated later – long story – with technicalities).

Thanks so much to those who worked hard on the translation, and to our amazing friends at YouVersion. And thanks to all of you for praying for us. Please keep it up!

In Christ,
Pastor Kris  = )

    Thank you for your awesome guides – really enjoyed Revelation and TTW #1 and 2! As an Afrikaans speaking person it is very special to get the Word study guide in your own language.

    Wow!! Look at God!!. Congratulations to you Pastor and the staff. What a wonderful accomplishment. I started with the app and I will tell you, it is blessing. So happy others in different languages will be blessed as well. May God continue to bless the work of hands & enlarge your territory.
