ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Jan. 13, 2022 /Christian Newswire/ -- Faith Comes By Hearing (FCBH) enters its 50th year of ministry with celebration and excitement for what's to come. "I am humbled by what God has done in these past 50 years," said FCBH president and co-founder Jerry Jackson. "He gave us a mission so many years ago and continues to bring us strong people and technology to complete it."



Now recognized as a global leader in recording and Oral Bible Translation technology, Faith Comes By Hearing had humble beginnings in the New Mexico desert in 1972. Jerry and Anet Jackson (pictured above) continued their walk of faith, obeying direction from the Lord by starting a ministry to "bring [His] Church together and make disciples." They called it "Hosanna" and started a Christian cassette tape-lending library. "God desires His Word to cover the world as the waters cover the sea," Jackson explained. "Anet and I took on this mission—to 'Get God's Word to every person'—as our life mission."
