The Seed Company | Every Tribe Every Nation Part 3



Sole Podcast Season 2 Episode 5

The Seed Company | Every Tribe Every Nation Part 3

No message or book has ever been translated into all 7000+ languages. Yet new technologies and methodologies are radically changing the rate and quality of translation, and forging the way for one of the greatest achievements in history: the Bible in every language. And it’s happening in our lifetime. Kris Langham sits down with Randall Lemley of The Seed Company for the amazing story behind the scenes of this groundbreaking endeavor..

And still more news...

iPhone/iPad: If you're on iPhone or iPad and experiencing troubles with your app crashing, we are aware of the issue and have a fix on the way. TTW version 3.4.1 causes the app to close when selecting certain audio guides from the Browse menu. Our programmer Zach fixed the issue and submitted it to Apple's App Store, and you should see version 3.4.2 available soon. Watch for it in the app store (here). Thanks for your patience with us!

Android - Temporarily out of the App Store: Recent updates to the Android system have caused our audio player to have significant issues on Android devices, and we are working hard now to fix all issues. For more details, including how to hear TTW on podcast or how to get the TTW app outside the app store, click here. TTW will be back in the Android app store soon, and we are working hard now to fix all issues. Thanks for your patience and your prayers - we appreciate it!

And a little more other news...

iPhone App Update = Lots of Player Fixes
We just launched a major update to our iPhone app with a bunch of great fixes and upgrades to the audio player. The Android update is in the works now, so please pray for our programmer Zach as he makes progress there. Here is a list of the upgrades you'll find:
 - Bluetooth: Works great in your car, on Alexa, etc.
 - Lockscreen Audio Player: Now you can pause, ffwd, etc from your iPhone lock screen
 - Autoplay: Now the autoplay keeps going when your screen is locked or dark.
 - PreAudio: Won't keep playing repeatedly on the same plan.
 - Get the TTW update in the iPhone App Store

George Floyd, Injustice, & the Bible

Hello TTW family! Pastor Kris here. There's a lot of hurt going on in my country right now. I don't have all the answers, but I do hope to bring some compassion and understanding. This last Sunday at my church (still meeting online), I invited some good friends to open the Word with me, and we talked openly about injustice and race relations - from the Word and in our world. I have to say - I learned a lot! Thanks so Terrence Brooks, Ruben Young, Robbie & Nancy Boyd, and Cameron Pacheco for joining the discussion. Check it out below - I hope it blesses you as it did me.

Refuge Long Beach Sunday Service
Note! Skip to 33 minutes for my Bible study, and to just past 1 hour for the discussion (the best part!)

Note: We're planning more discussion soon on the Sole Podcast.
