Keith in Curacao: Listening to Ensure Hearing

The volunteers in the foreground here are proof-listening. They read along as we record to make sure a) the reader says exactly what is in the printed Bible; b) the reader says it correctly; c) there aren't any mistakes in the printed text.* They sometimes do this for two hours at a stretch. Tedious? Many do not think so.
"This is a great job, you know," one proof-listener told me after a two-hour session of Revelations. "It fills you every time. You read and you read. It fills you."
Thank God for proof-listeners, and thank God that His Word has impact, even in through a task like this.


*Proof-listeners find one in every New Testament recording project. So far, they've found a missing word and a switch in an apostle's name.
