Description

The Life in Translation Podcast is a window into my life as a missionary linguist, as I explore topics related to missions, Bible translation, and whatever else I may be thinking about at the moment. **Due to security concerns, my name does not occur in this podcast.

Elijah, Elisha, and Jesus
2021/05/22
Hey! In this episode, I talk about some of the things that struck me as I studied 1 Kings 17, and how the significance of this passage plays out other places in the Bible (particularly in Jesus' life). This is just one of the many stories that are blowing my mind as I increasingly understand the inter-connectedness of Scripture. God bless!

Arabian Nights, German Words, and English Bible Translations
2021/02/22
Hey! Things are thawing here in Houston, and I decided to get a podcast out. This week I discuss Skopostheorie (That's the German word), how Skopostheorie would apply to translating folk stories (That's the Arabian Nights), and how it sort of reframes the Bible Translation debates (And that's the English Bible Translations). Enjoy! If you would like to help raise funds for an Alumnus of my School who lost their house in the winter storm, you can do so here. Thanks!

Where to put...the...pause: Reading with the Masoretes
2021/02/04
I finally found some time in my study schedule to talk a little bit about Hebrew accent and cantillation marks, and how we can use them to get some hints for how to read the Bible. I also mention some of the need to pray for that nation of Burma right now in the light of the recent coup de-etat. To contact me, click here.

A Story from Greece
2020/12/10
Today I don't talk at all about language, or Hebrew (Gasp!). Instead, I tell a story about a woman I met in Greece, one of the stories that I think about often, and that encourages me not to settle for a comfortable life when it would be easy. That's it. That's the description. Contact: https://lifeintranslationblog.wordpress.com/ Support the show (https://lifeintranslationblog.wordpress.com/support/)
