Description

In the late 1980s, John and Bonnie Nystrom came alongside Pastor Peter and several other men from Arop village in Papua New Guinea to translate the Bible into the local language. Now, while visiting another part of the country just ten years later, John and Bonnie learned that tragedy had struck Arop village causing a massive loss of life. What had happened? Where their neighbors okay? What about the members of the Bible translation team? Was this the end of Bible translation for Arop? In Sleeping Coconuts, John and Bonnie Nystrom share their story of tragedy, teamwork and transformation, and the incredible way that God used a tsunami to change the face of Bible translation in Papua New Guinea.
