International English Christian Literature

Just a quick post on a resource, Gospel Publishing Mission. This is what they say about themselves:


Gospel Publishing Mission is Hope International Missions' world-wide publishing ministry. Our mission is to bring the Gospel, world-wide to those who speak English as a second language.
We publish Gospel books in a very understandable way using Special English. This is a 1,500 word vocabulary of very simple basic English words. (It's based on the Voice of America's basic English.)

Besides the limited vocabulary; Special English is written in • plain simple style,
• 
one thought per sentence,
• 
and idioms are avoided.

We have books in more than 50 countries, distributed through churches,
mission organizations, and book shops.



We publish books on evangelism, prayer, Christian living & devotion, English learning through the Gospel story, biographies, Christian novel, and children’s books. Some of our books are published in bi-lingual format with one of several languages side-by-side with International English.


If you need printed material in English to support your ministry, this might be the resource you've been looking for.


For the Kingdom,
Bob A
