Kindling Fire with Troy Mangum

he First Nations Version of the New Testament release date was Aug 2021. I speak with the lead translator- Terry Wildman of the Ojibwe & Yaqui tribes. He is also the director of spiritual growth and leadership developer for Native Intervarsity & founder of Rain Ministries. On this podcast we discuss 1- What inspired the start of a new translation for First Nations tribes? 2- What First Nations beliefs align with Biblical teaching? 3- What First Nations ceremonies align with Bible Teaching? Here is John 3:16-17 from the First Nations Version (FNV) “The Great Spirit loves this world of human beings so deeply he gave us his Son—the only Son who fully represents him. All who trust in him and his way will not come to a bad end, but will have the life of the world to come that never fades—full of beauty and harmony. Creator did not send his Son to decide against the people of this world, but to set them free from the worthless ways of the world.” For more information on the First Nations Version New Testament and Terry Wildman go to: https://firstnationsversion.com/
