Audio Bibles Help Disciple New Converts
Cote
d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast) has a population of nearly 30 million people.
Muslims are its largest religious group, representing around 40% of the
population. Around 37% of the population identifies as Christian. The
remaining 33% of the country are mostly followers of local ethnic
religions, found mainly in the north of the country. While the Christian
population is significant, Bibles are hard to access or afford for many
people, and roughly 30% of the population is illiterate. Front-line
workers recently delivered 500 solar-powered audio Bibles to northern
parts of the country. One pastor traveled 12 hours to receive 45 Bibles
in the local “We” language. “This will be a great help to new
believers,” added the front-line worker, who said many of the new
followers of Christ are former Muslims. The pastor who traveled that
long distance also received a solar-powered projector to show the JESUS
film in his area.
