Imagine if you had no books. No commentaries, no theological works. As Christians we are impacted by books in a very large way. But in Cambodia, God-centered books are virtually non-existent in the Khmer language. At Action Cambodia, we desire to see God-centered, God-glorifying books translated into the Khmer language so that pastors as well as lay people can benefit from teachers of the past as well as the present. The Apostle Paul wrote to Timothy, “When you come bring…the books” (2 Tim. 4:13). And just as Paul put a high priority on his books, we desire that Cambodia would have the opportunity and privilege to benefit, as we have, from biblical resources in their own language, written by the pillars of the faith throughout the centuries.
Action Cambodia has translated such works as Fundamentals of the Faith and John Piper's Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came to Die and is currently translating Learning About Jesus, by Team 3 Ministries, True Discipleship, by William MacDonald, and the eight book series Design for Discipleship by the Navigators.
Action Cambodia has also developed a viable spelling checker for the Khmer langauge and is currently developing a Khmer grammar checker, so that the resources we produce, as well as other Christians, will be the highest possible quality as a testimoney to those outside Christ, that we do all things as unto Him.
