Choctaw Bibles Connect Christians with Lost Heritage (Christianity Today)

Translation and digitization projects are seeking to revitalize the Indigenous language.

Kenny Wallace doesn’t have a lot of people to talk to in Choctaw. 

But he does have a Bible app with a new translation of Scripture in the Indigenous language that his ancestors spoke. And it has an audio sync feature that allows him to listen to the words aloud, to hear how they sound.

“Sometimes, that’s the only Choctaw voice I ever hear,” Wallace told CT. “Not only is it feeding my soul, but it’s actually feeding me culturally as well.”
