3Cherishing God's Word is a rich selection of devotions to inspire and guide readers in their faith journey . . . You'll read about a terrorist turned Bible translator, a militant Muslim who now pastors a church, persecuted believers who risk all to continue translating Scripture, and an unreached village whose trajectory has changed heavenward since they came to have Scripture in their own language for the very first time! These are the stories of Wycliffe Associates-servants of God. We pray you will enjoy this tangible reminder of how the prayers and partnership of the those who faithfully support Bible translation efforts are advancing the gospel in regions all over the world and in ways that can only be heaven-sent. God's translated word is a great blessing to churches and believers around the world who long to have a Bible in their own language so they can read, understand, and share it with others . . . leading the lost to faith in Jesus Christ. For more than 20 years, Mae Greenleaf has served God through Wycliffe Associates, helping equip churches and translators around the world with the tools and training they need to translate the Bible into their own language-the language of their hearts. As Prayer Watch Coordinator, Mae leads a dedicated team of partners who pray for the most pressing needs in Bible translation. This is her seventh collection of published devotions, offered to honor God and uplift friends who care about Bible translation efforts. Mae and her husband, Art, live in Ocala, Florida. They enjoy spending time with their four children and 13 grandchildren.
