Many of us skim the long list of names in Matthew 1.
But for Angelina, this is the good part.
When Angelina received a Talking Bible, for the first time, she could choose a passage and listen to God’s Word in Kiswahili whenever she wanted.
The genealogy of Jesus especially captured her attention. In a culture where family lines and ancestry carry deep meaning, hearing the names of Jesus’ ancestors helped His story feel rooted in real people and real history.
It made Angelina feel that she knew Him better.
Across Tanzania, Talking Bibles are also helping students hear Scripture during Religious Education classes. A passage that may seem like only a list of names can become the moment Jesus feels real—and His story begins to feel like good news meant for them, too.
