Insider

You probably have never heard about Insider Bible translations. Don’t worry. Few Christians, pastors or church mission committees have. But it’s past time we learn about them and the risks they pose. Insider Bible translations remove or change Scriptural terms in an attempt to make them more attractive to the Lost. These well-intentioned efforts have quietly spread into several mission contexts. But is it proper? How are Christians to make sense of what can be an intimidating, technical issue? Fortunately, help has arrived. The Arlington Statement on Bible Translation was published and provides a simple framework to draw clarity from the confusion.   On this week’s Christian Emergency Podcast, Andy Coleman dives into these important issues with two amazing guests from Horizons International: Pierre Houssney, their executive director, and Seth Vitrano-Wilson, their director of biblical translations. First aired in 2020, this encore episode remains relevant for Christians in 2022. If you are blessed by today's episode, please leave us a five-star rating.

Insider Bible Translations, with Pierre Houssney and Seth Vitrano-Wilson (Encore)

On August 4, 2020, the world’s eyes were glued on Beirut, Lebanon as two fatal explosions in a major urban center caused at least 171 deaths, 6,000 injuries, rocked social media, and left an estimated 300,000 people homeless. Pierre Rashad Houssney is Middle East and North Africa Regional Director for Horizons International, based in Beirut, and is a Lebanese-American who grew up in the context of cross-cultural ministry among Muslims and international students. This week, we ask Pierre the question many missions-minded believers are asking: what happened in Beirut, and what does it mean for the cause of the gospel? Pierre has been in full-time ministry with Horizons International since 2006, and has been an active member of Horizons’ teaching staff and curriculum development team since 2002. Pierre lives in Beirut, Lebanon, with his wife Gigi and their two children. He leads a team of nationals and missionaries who run a center for evangelism and discipleship among Muslims. He holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Northern Colorado and is fluent in English and Arabic.
