Many thousands of TWR Africa’s listeners across our continent can attest that Dr. J Vernon McGee’s “Thru the Bible” programmes have meant more to them in learning and understanding God’s Word than has any other source of Biblical training!

What makes this immensely popular Bible teaching series so phenomenal is that the same in-depth study heard by listeners in North America each week is also heard by millions of people around the world in more than 100 different languages. Decades after Dr. McGee’s passing, his programmes continue day-by-day to inspire and disciple listeners around the world towards a better and systematic understanding of the God of the Bible. For millions of African listeners, Thru the Bible may be the only systematic Bible study they will ever receive.

SWAZILAND TRANSMITTER DEDICATION

Are you in the habit of praying for God’s kingdom to come and His will to be done?

If you do, but secretly wonder if God pays any attention to your prayers, you should take heart and be greatly encouraged by what God is doing from TWR’s transmitter site in the small Kingdom of Swaziland.  

On Wednesday, 20 April 2016, the Association of Christian Media (ACM) for Southern Africa honoured TWR Africa with a very special media award at their annual gala dinner and awards ceremony hosted in Cape Town.

The trophy is awarded to the member who have done the most to promote the family over the past year (2015).

 With the adjudication, the judges were primarily interested in media that focused on family related issues and which emphasized biblically sound principles on nurturing and protecting families in Africa.

The Voice of the Church (VOC), an FM radio station founded in 1994 by TWR, celebrated 20 years of broadcasting on Saturday, 26 September at the Mavuso Trade and Exhibition Centre in Manzini. Close to 2,000 people attended the ceremony. VOC is the National Partner of Trans World Radio (TWR)  in Swaziland.

The celebration made headlines in The Sunday Times of Swaziland as a Swazi-born billionaire pledged a E10,000,000 (approximately $720,000) donation for further development. The businessman (who now lives in Botswana) hearing the needs from the VOC National Director in August requested a budget. He presented this E10 million budget to companies in which he is a shareholder and explained the importance of VOC’s ministry in Swaziland.
