Bible translation in sub-Saharan Africa: the map!
WorldMap.org (the people behind the very cool Global Status of Christianity map) have a monthly featured map on their website detailing the state of Christianity in a particular part of the world. This month’s map depicts the status of Bible translation in sub-Saharan Africa (link goes to a small image of the map; a more detailed version is available for download here).
It’s an eye-opening map–a surprisingly large portion of sub-Saharan Africa (including most of Mauritania, Chad, Botswana, and Madagascar) are still in need of a local translation of the Bible.
