LANGUAGES
Each year I become more aware of those all around the world that desire more Bible lessons in their native language.
My only language is English. However there are plenty of international students, missionaries and pastors that could translate these materials.
I release these materials for them to translate without needing to ask permission. Read the previous section named RELEASED.
Some parts of these lessons might not be understood outside of the USA. So those who translate them are free to make changes as the Holy Spirit leads them.
A person can translate the entire item into another language and/or they could alternate English with the other language. That could also serve to help others read English better.
For years I have been writing my lessons mostly in a style so that there is one sentence per line. These one-line sentences are grouped into paragraph-like segments. Repeatedly it has struck me that this could make translating easier as well comprehension where English is not the first language.
I am aware that there are billions that cannot read. So a person is free to make an audio recording in English, their language(s) and/or alternating languages. These audio versions can be offered in a meeting, over the radio or recorded.
Anyone can get a free blog like this from Blogger http://www.blogger.com and publish the translated work.
Studio Odeo http://studio.odeo.com offers ways to create podcasts for free.
Lulu offers a way for publication on demand http://www.lulu.com/
I got the idea to alternate English with another language from a very successful outreach of Leading the Way http://www.leadingtheway.org and their innovative Dual Language Program http://www.leadingtheway.org/site/PageServer?pagename=bc_radio_dual
