In 1944 some people of immense vision founded Tyndale House in Cambridge.
But what is Tyndale House?
Well, it has a library which aims to have
all the books you need for serious study of the Bible.
The library here is wonderful!
Ah, they have a very good library!
One of the three best libraries for Bible studies in the world.
It is the best in the world in terms of a compact library
where the needs of high level
Old Testament and New Testament scholarship in particular
can be carried out so effectively.
Fine place.
The community has just been absolutely amazing.
Research is not only books which there is a lot of here
but it's people, talking to people.
This is a place where people who are carrying out really significant ministries across the world
meet for the first time and make friendships that last for life.
It's a working and a worshipping community
which fosters Biblical scholarship at the highest level
in service of the Church.
It's also a very efficient place to work.
I absolutely love being at Tyndale House
and more than enjoying it
is making it possible for me to pursue my Ph.D.
The reason I'm here in Tyndale is that
I want to be trained a bit more in Biblical languages
for the work of future Bible translation back in Mongolia.
Being able to come here and just focus on my project
I'm actually for the first time in the whole project
ahead of the game which is really good.
It's very easy to focus here.
I love it here.
It's the fellowship at Tyndale,
the books, the university,
the city itself is wonderful.
This is a wonderful place because
you study all the day until the closing time
and then you go home and ... sleep.
So it just makes for a much more efficient work experience.
We also meet to worship!
Tyndale House is a place where church leaders are equipped
but also a place where people who teach the church leaders are equipped.
You meet people here at Tyndale that
you could never meet in one place anywhere else in the world.
I have friends now I think on five different continents
just from people I've met here.
While I'm studying here I've met many people.
I've met people that I'll be in touch with
for the rest of my life.
It's been delightful in every way
because it promoted my research
made things smooth sailing
a great place to be and all the people that I've met.
Were it not for Tyndale House
the Ph.D would have stopped right there.
I'd say it would be very hard to imagine
doing a Ph.D without Tyndale House.
Tyndale House is a small organization
but with a quite disproportional impact
and it's one that you can be involved in
as a prayer supporter, financial supporter, volunteer or advocate.
There's so much more to be done
to provide Bible experts for the Church
and it's a team effort.
Tyndale House in my view is a marvel.
I value it
I rejoice in it
I talk about it
I support it
I pray for it.
Just because we see the immense value
it has for strengthening the Church
and Church's understanding of the Bible throughout the world.
