A lot of the updating we do to this site takes the form of keeping links up to date for books, tracts, etc. Its important work, but so routine we don't report it. So its exciting to report a new (at least new-to-us) organization that is offering foreign language Bibles.
Spoken Word of God is an international ministry of reading the Bible over radio. They also sell audio Bibles in 20 languages:
Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Tagalog, Telugu, Ukrainian and Urdu.

Week of February 18, 2007

Readers of this site may be interested in a provocative article by John Piper, author and Pastor for Preaching at Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota, explaining how and why his church openly pursues racial diversity in its leadership.

"We intentionally take ethnicity into account when making choices about who we will call to the pastoral staff and eldership. This is the most controversial. It has been labeled 'affirmative action' or 'racial preferences.' Here is how it works at Bethlehem and why we make decisions this way."

Read the entire article at John's site www.desiringgod.org.

Register now for ethnic ministry conference
Every year for the last six years the Ethnic America Network has sponsored an Ethnic Summit in a major American city such as L.A., Dallas, and Atlanta. In 2007, it comes to Seattle with a theme appropriate to the Pacific, "Gateway to the Nations." Since this is a national Summit, participants are expected to come from all across the country.

Who is the conference really for?

  • Those who are investigating ministry among ethnic peoples
  • Pastors, church planters, and members of ethnic or multi-ethnic churches
  • Mono-ethnic church leaders who want to intentionally include others
  • Denominational leaders looking for strategies and partnerships
  • Business persons with a burden for people groups
  • Parachurch agency members interested in ethnic ministry
  • Anyone who would like to obtain research on people groups
  • Intercessors who understand the critical need for prayer in this arena

    Registration fee until Feb 26 is $75 per person, after which it increases to $110.
