Never having had access to the gospel and therefore, no knowledge of God’s grace.
The vast majority of the Deaf worldwide have never seen a Bible story or passage in their natural language: Sign Language.
There are more than 200 sign languages,
but sadly, they are without scripture in their NATURAL language.
That's right, ZERO Bibles have been fully translated into the natural sign languages of the Deaf worldwide. We are working to solve that problem.
Nick Jungheim serves as President of Deaf Pathway Global, a nonprofit dedicated to bringing Scripture to Deaf communities worldwide through Deaf-led Bible translation in natural sign languages. He is Deaf and originally from Chicago, and he holds degrees from Gallaudet University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Nick has spent decades serving in Deaf ministry, including pastoring Deaf congregations in Oklahoma and serving for approximately ten years as a missionary with the International Mission Board in Senegal. He earned a Doctor of Ministry from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in 2020. Nick currently lives in Nashville, Tennessee and is the father of four children, as he continues to lead Deaf Pathway Global’s mission to see Deaf communities gain access to Scripture in their heart languages.
