These Bible translation principles can save each missionary from having to learn all over again the same lessons already learned by other Bible translators. His progress as a Bible translator can be speeded up and his work made more efficient. He will also be more effective in communicating the message of the Bible in another language. Training for teamwork BBTI also exists to help missionaries learn to work together as a team. From this as a basis, he is encouraged to learn how to work with other missionaries.
Church planting requires the gifts and skills of many individuals.
There is a need for those who will preach and teach in the local language. There is a need for those who will translate Scripture. There is a need for those who will teach illiterate people to read so they can read the translated Scriptures. There is a need for those who will maintain a supply line to the missionaries by an airplane, truck or boat. Those who will help to educate their children are also needed.
