Good and Evil Update<br />

By Chuck <strong>Joy</strong>ner,<br />

Asst. General Manager<br />

Getting Started and Finishing After months of working to<br />

secure translators, <strong>the</strong> translation of Good and Evil into <strong>the</strong> Punjabi and<br />

Urdu languages of Pakistan and India is now underway. With over 160 million<br />

combined speakers of <strong>the</strong>se two languages,<strong>the</strong>se translations have <strong>the</strong><br />

potential to greatly impact South Asia. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is <strong>the</strong><br />

only solution to <strong>the</strong> great conflicts of this region and Good and Evil has<br />

proven to be an effective tool in presenting <strong>the</strong> Gospel. Please pray for <strong>the</strong><br />

swift completion of <strong>the</strong>se translations for <strong>the</strong> sake of those millions of souls trapped<br />

in <strong>the</strong> bondage of sin and hopeless religion.<br />

We are nearing <strong>the</strong> finish line on three o<strong>the</strong>r translations that are scheduled to be<br />

printed in April and May. The Falam Chin language is spoken by over 100,000 people<br />

in <strong>the</strong> mountains of northwest Burma bordering India. The Zaiwa language has over<br />

100,000 speakers mostly in nor<strong>the</strong>ast Burma and <strong>the</strong> bordering areas of China. The<br />

speakers of Hawa Naga number over a million and live mostly in nor<strong>the</strong>ast India and<br />

nor<strong>the</strong>rn Burma. These people groups are mostly unknown to <strong>the</strong> rest of <strong>the</strong> world but<br />

are known of God and need to hear <strong>the</strong> message of salvation in Jesus Christ. Thank you<br />

for your continued support of NGJ’s publishing and distribution of Good and Evil in<br />

<strong>the</strong>se and o<strong>the</strong>r languages.<br />

Russian Update The initial translation work is completed. There has been a team<br />

of five people working on <strong>the</strong> project. They strove to keep <strong>the</strong> balance between Bible<br />

idioms and conversational language. All <strong>the</strong> Russian workers found Good and Evil to<br />

be an extremely interesting book to read. We already have many requests for Good and<br />

Evil from missionaries in Belarus, Ukraine and Russia. We expect to print by <strong>the</strong> end<br />

of May and start distribution in <strong>the</strong> Jewish Community Center in Gomel to prisons,<br />

orphanages, summer camps and churches.<br />
