Audio Bibles for U.S. troops
Fourth of July is when Americans celebrate their freedom and get together to cook outs, parades and fireworks. It is also a time to honor our nation's troops.
Faith Comes By Hearing , the entire World Audio Bible ministry, is in honor of the U.S. military through the Military BibleStick project.
"We feel that the burden of bringing the Word of God in audio to our troops," said Morgan Jackson, international director ministry. "So we developed a special, portable Audio Bible for the army, filled the entire New Testament and sent to chaplains which in contact with us and asked.
Chaplains who asked to have distributed more than 10,000 Audio Bibles for service members in Iraq Kosovo and Afghanistan.
"Audio Scriptures are perfect for the military and women to hear the Word of God," said a Navy chaplain. " Nobody walks around with a paperback in your back pocket. Instead, connect your MP3 player, watching movies or playing video games. They are a visual generation, why do not reach them with the Scriptures in the media are more comfortable? "
In fact, the reception has free audio Bibles awakened many troops to write again. For example, an Army sergeant in Iraq, said, "Thanks for sending the audio of the New Testament. It is a great idea. I like listen when I need a moment of silence to reflect on the words of the Lord. "
"Deployed troops living in cramped quarters," said Jackson. "It is difficult to get time alone. Whenever you're with other people. Put on headphones and listen to the Bible can help you escape. In addition, dramatized with sound effects, music and multiple character voices. "
A Marine in Iraq wrote: "You feel like you're there - like you're listening to a story or watching a movie. It is interesting and easy to listen. "
A soldier's mother expressed her thoughts writing, "Thanks for your audio Bible that was given to my son Matthew. is stationed at Camp Anaconda in Iraq. He has heard and enjoyed it very much. He also passed it around to other soldiers to listen. When you are a mother whose child is so many kilometers away, it is comforting to know that God is keeping him. "
"This project is so successful that the defendant has exhausted our resources," Jackson said. "People can honor the troops by sponsoring a soldier from $ 25. "
