Last Wednesday morning, we had the honor of hearing from one of our members from our Bible Study. Mike Westbrook volunteers on weekends at North Coast and spends about 1 month or more a year overseas doing Missionary work to wherever God calls him.
This week he told us about one of the organizations that he will be traveling with later this year and the organization he describe was amazing. He laid out the statistics of how many people in this world that cannot read. There is 6.3 Billion people in the world, 1 billion of them cannot read. That is a lot people. Even if and when the scriptures/the Bible is translated into their own language, they still will not be able to read it. That is why Mike Westbrook has teamed up with Talking Bibles. Talking Bibles is a new way to get the Bible out to people who cannot read. It is a Audio Bible with a little sundial to recharge the battery via solar power.
I cannot do Talking Bibles justice by describing it, so please click on the link above or click on the Talking Bibles link listed under our links pages. If you have further questions or you would like to get involved please contact Mike Westbrook directly at 760-586-5646.
