What if you could hear the Psalms and Proverbs as if for the very first time? In this episode of the Unhurried Living Podcast, Alan Fadling talks with Terry Wildman, Ojibwe and Yaqui follower of Jesus, storyteller, musician, and lead translator of the First Nations Version (FNV).
Terry has spent decades sharing Creator’s story in ways that resonate with Indigenous hearts. After the widely embraced release of the FNV New Testament in 2021, he and a translation council of over 20 tribes have now brought the beauty, rhythm, and imagery of Native American storytelling to Psalms and Proverbs.
In this conversation, Alan and Terry explore:
How oral tradition opens fresh ways of hearing Scripture
The relational names for God, like Great Spirit and Grandfather
Why Psalms and Proverbs were chosen as the next FNV project
How this translation speaks to Indigenous and non-Indigenous readers alike
Practical ways to let Scripture slow you down and deepen your walk with God
If you long to encounter the Psalms and Proverbs in a way that stirs your soul and draws you into deeper communion with God, this episode will inspire you.
