He did it anyway, because of what was at stake and because He knew His message was that important! These courageous men remind me of that, and I am humbled and inspired by their story. Thanks for sharing.

We certainly appreciate your prayers – not to mention these DRC translators who covet your prayers. God bless you.

This article gives me a new focus of prayer for these passionate followers of Christ. Thanks for sharing this.

Congolese translators also answer another question which I head from time to time: Why translate the Bible where people are hungry or have other pressing needs? The best answer, perhaps, is that is that those actually living in those difficult circumstances prioritize Bible translation.
