Each year we start a global, social conversation on why the Bible matters. It’s called #WhyBible. This year, we're focusing on encouragement and helping you live out 1 Thessalonians 5:11a (NLT) — “So encourage each other and build each other up.”
September 30 is a day set aside to honor the work of Bible translation. The U.S. has celebrated Bible Translation Day every year since 1966 when the House and Senate first proclaimed it a holiday.
We all know that the Bible is transformative; it brings hope, life and salvation. God calls us to share the Good News with others, and Bible translation makes it possible for people to understand the gospel in a language and form they can clearly understand.
God also calls us to be encouragements to one another — to our family members, neighbors, coworkers and even strangers. One way to live out the call of Scripture is by lifting up other believers and pointing them to the truth that they’re seen, known and loved by God. After all, everyone needs to be encouraged that they matter!
This Bible Translation Day, join us in sending short, encouraging notes to people around the world. If you post on social media, use the hashtag #WhyBible. Let’s flood social media with kindness and spread the love of Christ this September!
