Episode 18: Unreached People in Africa and the Quest for Evangelism Tools.
In this episode of The iBIBLE Podcast, Steve Cleary is joined by Tim, the Director of Sign Language Ministry, and Parfait, to discuss the challenges and successes of evangelizing in remote parts of Africa. They highlight the story of a man in Togo who used a not-yet-finished film about Jesus to bring people to Christ, stressing the importance of having the right tools for spreading the gospel. The conversation also touches on the necessity of translating religious content into regional languages and the special challenges of reaching deaf communities. Parfait further discusses the geopolitical complexities of evangelism in various African nations, particularly Muslim-majority countries where persecution is severe. Steve emphasizes the goal of providing digital tools to safely and effectively share Christian content, as well as efforts to advance sign language translations.
