Hearing Is Believing


Article: Pope: Gospel Made to Be Preached in Every Language

Amen! God's Word must go forth to every nation, language, tribe and tongue.

Unfortunately, over half the world cannot read. And two-thirds of the world's people live and learn in oral cultures. They transmit their heritage, beliefs, skills and values without the written word.

Oral cultures need God's Word too, and in a format that they can use -- like audio. In many parts of the world, the Catholic Church and Faith Comes By Hearing are working together to reach those peoples with the sacred Scriptures in audio.
