Help Someone Hear the Gospel in Their Own Language


Imagine opening your phone late at night, searching for answers.


Your marriage is struggling.

You are battling anxiety.

You have questions about God.

You are searching for hope.

You search for Christian podcasts.

You search for Biblical encouragement.

You search for answers about Jesus.


And you find almost nothing you can understand.


For millions of people around the world, this is reality.


While thousands of Christian podcasts, devotionals, sermons, and Gospel-centered resources exist online, most are available only in English. Countless people who are hungry for truth never hear Biblical teaching in the language they understand best—the language of their heart.


A language barrier should never stand between a person and the Gospel.


That is why we launched Echo the Gospel.


Our mission is simple:

To help make the Gospel heard in every language by translating Christian podcasts, devotionals, sermons, and Gospel-centered media for people around the world.


Today, we are already working with Christian content creators and ministries to expand the reach of trusted Biblical teaching beyond English-speaking audiences. One of those efforts is the translation of You, Me & Jesus, a Christian marriage podcast hosted by Pastor Carey Green and his wife through Morning Mindset Media. We are also helping expand The Morning Mindset devotional podcast into Spanish, bringing daily Biblical encouragement to Spanish-speaking listeners who may have never had access to these resources before.But this is only the beginning.


We have been in contact with additional ministries and nonprofits producing content focused on:

• Christian marriage and family

• Apologetics and evangelism

• Faith-based encouragement

• Biblical discipleship

• Spiritual growth

• Outreach to skeptics and atheists asking questions about Christianity


Many of these ministries have a genuine burden to reach the nations. What they often lack is the funding necessary for professional translation, voice production, editing, localization, and distribution into multiple languages.


The technology exists.

The Gospel message exists.

The need exists.

What is missing is funding.


What Does Translation Actually Cost?


Many people assume translation is simply a matter of clicking a button and letting artificial intelligence do the work. But high-quality Gospel translation requires much more. Biblical content must be translated accurately, reviewed for theological consistency, adapted for natural speech patterns, voiced, edited, quality checked, and prepared for distribution. Currently, a typical podcast episode costs approximately $3.60 per minute to translate and produce.


That means:

• 20-minute episode — approximately $72

• 30-minute episode — approximately $108

• 45-minute episode — approximately $162

• 60-minute episode — approximately $216

Video content often costs significantly more.


When ministries want translated video versions, additional production may include subtitles, synchronization, voice replacement, lip-sync technology, localization, quality assurance, and publishing across multiple platforms. Every translated episode represents hours of work performed with one goal:


Helping someone hear the Gospel in a language they fully understand.


How Your Support Helps

Your gift helps fund:

• Podcast translation

• Audio production and voice work

• Video subtitles and localization

• Translation software and production tools

• Publishing and outreach costs

• Expansion into additional world languages


Every donation directly helps remove language barriers that prevent people from accessing Biblical teaching. A translated podcast may strengthen a struggling marriage. A translated devotional may encourage a believer facing hardship. A translated testimony may answer questions for a skeptic searching for truth. A translated Gospel message may become the first clear presentation of Jesus Christ someone has ever heard. We may never know every person impacted by this work. But God does. And eternity will reveal the results.


Our Long-Term Vision

Our vision is to establish a dedicated nonprofit organization focused specifically on helping Christian ministries, churches, and Gospel-centered organizations translate Biblical media for global outreach. Many smaller ministries have a heart for missions but simply cannot afford large-scale translation efforts on their own. We want to help change that. As this effort grows, we plan to formally establish Echo the Gospel as a nonprofit ministry dedicated to expanding access to Biblical teaching around the world through translated media. We believe technology should be used for more than entertainment. We believe it should be used to proclaim Christ.


One translated episode.

One translated devotional.

One translated testimony.

One more person hearing about Jesus in words they truly understand.


Will you help us make the Gospel heard in every language?


Thank you for standing with us as we work to echo the Gospel to the nations.
