MONTHLY UPDATE | MARCH 2023
“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” Psalm 46:10
In the demands of daily life, I sometimes struggle with finding time to not only be physically still, but to take a posture of spiritual stillness before the Lord. God desires for us to cease striving and to see him more clearly for who He really is… God. As we practice stillness, may we exalt and lift high our God in our hearts and minds for He is worthy.
This month we are celebrating the the completion of 12 recording projects, with another 22 projects in-studio in Africa, South Asia, Europe and the Americas. It has been a very busy first quarter!
We often talk about oral learners and those who cannot read. Is there a difference? Below you’ll find some information to help you better understand the needs of an oral culture and how illiteracy is just one category of oral learners and why audio bibles are an essential tool to reach both.
Lastly, we look forward to sharing our 2022 Annual Report with you in the coming weeks. It is filled with new regional updates, impact stories and new videos from India and Africa, none of which would have been possible without God’s grace and your prayers and support.
Thank you for your faithful support of Davar Audio Bibles.
For God’s glory!

FEATURED REGION: AFRICA
According to Globalization Partners International, Africa is home to one-third of the world’s languages with more than 2,000 distinct languages spoken on the continent consisting of 54 countries. Considering the rates of poverty and illiteracy, having audio bibles is crucial to reaching the people of Africa.
