The Bible.
The Word of God.
It’s dynamic, life-changing, soul-shaking
stuff.
It comforts, challenges, and encourages.
But imagine if the Bible didn’t exist in your
language. Imagine if you heard
about Christianity from other people, but you never
got the chance to read
the Word of God for yourself.
For 400 million people, this is a reality: not a
single word of the Bible is written in their language.
2,000 languages need a Bible translation. 2,500 more
need survey work.
Vision 2025 is about seeing a Bible translation project
started in all of the languages that need one by the
year 2025. Yes, you read that right—all of them.
If that strikes you as impossible, then you’re
right—it is! At the previous rate of Bible translation,
it would take 150 years to achieve this goal. But
that’s what makes it SO amazing! We can’t
do this on our own. It is going to take partnership,
prayer and total reliance on God. We believe this
vision is God-given and that He is calling us to a
greater sense of urgency.
We are in desperate need for the power of the Word
of God at work in our lives and in the lives of others.
We must move where God is moving and be willing to
be a part of the work in whatever way we can.
