The Forum of Bible Agencies International recently announced the launch of Find A Bible, an innovative and interactive website that gives easy access to Scriptures in more than 3,000 languages. According to the release, the Find A Bible site http://www.findabible.net provides the most comprehensive and current database of Bibles and portions in majority and minority languages available.
“Through Find A Bible,” it explains, “users now have a single place to search, download, view, or listen to these Bibles through links to Forum member agency websites.”
I visited the “Find a Bible” site to check it out. The site is set up geographically. When you go to the home page you will encounter a world map upon which you point and click on the continent in which you are interested, and then the country. You will then see a list of all the languages and dialects in that country with a number beside it in parenthsis. This number indicates the number of resources where you can find Bibles and other materials in that language. You can then chose a link and go to that source for downloades, on-line reading, and purchase. You can even listen to audio readings. A great tool for missions groups!
The Forum of Bible Agencies International is an alliance of more than 25 leading international Bible Agencies and other missions organizations with a shared vision: “working together to maximize the worldwide access and impact of God’s Word.” For a list of Forum members, point your browser to…http://www.forum-intl.net
