Description:
This project involved translating a book for a close friend who wanted to publish it in English-speaking markets. My background in journalism has helped me out with this.

The authors perspective

Mein Buch „Ein Lichtstrahl Seiner Liebe“ gibt es jetzt auch in englischer Sprache. Es handelt von Geschichten mit Gott und den Menschen. Die Nöte der Menschen sind Jesus nicht egal und ich habe schon oft durch Gebet erleben dürfen, wie Gott durch Seinen Sohn Jesus Christus machtvoll eingreift. Ich habe Kontakte in verschiedenen Ländern dieser Welt und bin zutiefst dankbar, dass durch Bettina Lohr jetzt mein Buch „A Ray Of Light From His Love“ auch in Afrika, Asien und Amerika gelesen wird. Ihre Übersetzung ist gut verständlich und ich bin mit ihrer Arbeit sehr zufrieden.
