Every Verse Tells a Story. Every Story Reveals His Love.

When you adopt a verse, you help people encounter God for the first time in their heart language. This is how love becomes visible and the Word comes alive.

“The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed His glory, the glory as the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.”
— John 1:14 (CSB)

Transformation Begins with Translation

Every translation tells a story of grace. When Scripture is finally read in a person’s heart language, something awakens. Faith grows, hope is restored, and the Church comes alive.

“Before we had the Word in our language, we only heard about God from others. Now we hear His voice ourselves. ”
— Local believer, Nigeria

  • When our people first heard John 1:1 in our language, they began to weep. It was as if God Himself was speaking to them for the first time. The village pastor said, ‘This is the beginning of revival.’

  • “I never imagined I would help translate the Bible. Now I wake up every morning excited to work on God’s Word. My children say, ‘Daddy, you are helping everyone know Jesus.’” — Jonas, Translator in Nigeria

  • “Once we began reading Scripture in our own tongue, our people understood the gospel deeply. We saw repentance, forgiveness, and unity like never before.” — Local Pastor, Nigeria

  • “The local church did not have their translation given to them from outsiders but by Burmese for Burmese.” -Asian Church Network

  • “I have been a Christian all my life, I got baptized in the church, I go to the church every Sunday…but it was only now I understood what the Gospel of Luke actually meant.” -Seba Language Team, DRC

A Movement of Love

“After this I looked, and there was a vast multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language, which no one could number, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were clothed in white robes with palm branches in their hands.”
— Revelation 7:9 (CSB)

The Great Commandment and the Great Commission are meeting—in villages, homes, and churches around the world. Each verse adopted is an act of love: love for God, who desires every tribe and tongue to know Him; and love for a neighbor who longs to hear His voice.
