6) Bible Storying Resource from the Front Lines –

brigtoday — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 03:54:00 +0000

Here’s a resource from a worker in Southeast Asia who has written a Bible storying resource that many find both unique and helpful for missionaries. Basically, it’s “a completely unique Bible storying set, designed to begin and end each story with Jesus. In the middle of each story there are relevant “flashbacks” to the Old Testament which help to understand more about who Jesus is and provide a broader Biblical worldview.” See it at…

and, if you’re interested, see his instructions there for ordering the resource as a book.

4) Resource to Encourage Missionaries

brigtoday — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 03:56:36 +0000

A Bible study guide called, “Finding Strength for the Journey,” provides a tool for member care or personal encouragement. The author drew from experiences as a missionary when writing this study guide on topics such as perseverance in hardship, dealing with depression, handling conflict, and benefit from trials. One missionary writes, “I have been able to relate to it more than any ‘stateside’ Bible study.” For Brigada readers, they’ve discounted the price to $5.00, plus shipping. There’s a bigger discount ($4.00 each) for orders of 20 or more. For more information contact

Learn Classical Arabic while You’re Studying the Bible

brigtoday — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 03:59:29 +0000

That’s the upshot of Tom’s project at:

http://www.arabbible.com/

Fascinating concept. It contains, for example, complete grammatical explanations of every single word in the Arabic New Testament. Just click on a word, and you’ll find a wealth of information, containing not only a dictionary entry for that word, but also its contextual meaning and full grammatical help as well (something that even the very best dictionary can never provide)!

In addition, you can also see a unique “Back Translation” that helps the user to readily see the structure of the literal Arabic, a powerful Smart-Search Concordance that provides a much more comprehensive and revealing search than a typical word-search function, and a Root Analyzer designed to help you discover, learn and retain entire word families.

Throw in a Verb Conjugator, Audio Recitation (slow the speaker’s voice down by 20%), and a Word Frequency Section (focus on learning those words which appear most frequently in the New Testament) and you’re off and running. First class stuff. (Thanks Jen!)

2) How to serve up the Bible in Arabic?

Editor — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 03:58:15 +0000

The folks who serve up

http://www.TunisLilMassih.com

recently received permission to use two different translations of the Bible on their website. Their original files are in Microsoft Word. What’s the best way to index this information (all 1189 chapters and the thousands of verses)? In the end they’d like it to be both searchable (by scripture reference or word) and able to allow users to copy/paste. Any suggestions? If so, just comment below. And thanks in advance for any help you can give them. They’re hard at work trying to share and *be* good news for their nation.
