MegaVoice Players and MicroBibles, Side-by-Side

Tom Treseder, the man God used to produce the MegaVoice player (source: megavoice.com/about/megavoice-history/)In 1986, Tom Treseder drew a sketch of a device without moving parts that could play audio files.  This picture was to lead him and his team to produce the MegaVoice player.

Back then, people depended on vinyl records and cassettes to replay audio. In the extreme temperatures of Siberia and the Sahara, these early technologies would often fail.

Twelve years passed before a microchip was invented which could hold the over 80 hours of audio required for the Bible. As the technology developed, the MegaVoice Player became a reality. Since 1999, MegaVoice Players have been a wonderful option for distributing the Word of God in audio format.

What is a MicroBible?

MicroBibles are the solution God provided to help us break through the five barriers which prevent access to the Word of God.  The MicroSD card is smaller than your thumbnail, so government officials will find it very difficult to stop you from bringing one of them into their country.  They can be played on MicroSD Card players, available worldwide.

“Fishing” Classes: Open Enrollment

When it comes to the MicroBible ministry, we tell all

Is it better to teach a person how to go fishing, or to fish for them?

A woman sells fish at this beachside fish market in Dakar, Senegal.If we do all of the fishing for someone, they become dependent on us when they need a fish for supper.  In the short term, the skill we have which no one else has allows us to grow in importance.

However, when no one knows how to do what we do and the demand for our craft is strong, our workload increases. It becomes impossible to keep up.

This is why we prefer to teach others how to produce their own MicroBibles rather than do all of the work ourselves.  When it comes to the MicroBible ministry, we tell all:

  • where to buy the equipment and supplies
  • how to use the equipment
  • the steps necessary to design a MicroBible
  • which format is best for your audience
  • what quality of microSD cards to buy
  • format installation and use for each type of phone
  • how to distribute them effectively
  • … and so much more!

Because there’s such a great need all over the world, God needs as many willing “fishermen” as He can find. The task God gave His Church is too great to ever try to keep up with it all alone.
