Explore the Bible Display

Take a moment to visit our Bible Display from Pioneer Bible Translators. It’s a visual reminder of both the abundance of God’s Word available to us and the need for translation in many parts of the world. The display is divided into three sections:

Translated Bibles: Representing languages where God’s Word is now accessible.
In Progress: Showcasing ongoing translation efforts.
Empty Section: A solemn symbol for the people who still lack access to the Bible in their native language.

Let this display inspire us to pray, give, and support the mission of Bible translation worldwide.

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God?

Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...
