Bible translation projects don’t just stop at translating and distributing the Bible. Every translation project also involves “Scripture Engagement” or “Scripture Use” elements: enabling and encouraging people to meet God and deepen their relationship with Him as they understand and interact with the Scriptures. This is not limited to the printed form only; with modern technology, the materials are often in audio or video form.
The projects supported by the R200 Programme aim to produce a range of different Scripture-based materials and promote their use in the communities and local churches.
One project in produces Sunday school materials, Bible storybooks, Big Books, audio CDs with original Christian songs, still picture videos, etc. They also train and equip neighbouring language groups to do the same.
A video prepared for children: Jesus restores a demon-possessed man (Luke 8:26-39)
Another project has produced Bible story books like this: Jesus calms the storm (Luke 8:22-25)
