So is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.

Two Faces, One Movement

ETEN is the internal engine of movement, aligning strategy, accelerating innovation and ensuring accountability. IllumiNations is the public voice, amplifying the story of Bible translation, mobilizing global prayer, connecting vision and inspiring global generosity to fuel the movement.

The All Access Goals began with a shared vision: that every person would have access to at least a portion of God’s Word in a language they understand best by 2033.

When ETEN formed, projections showed a 75-year gap between that vision and the expected reality. ETEN began as a step of faith, believing God could accelerate the work and close the gap.

With collaborative systems and backbone support implemented in 2018, momentum increased significantly. Since then, continued innovation and broader involvement from the global Church have opened new pathways for acceleration. ETEN continues pressing toward 2033 with urgency and faith—encouraged by how far the gap has narrowed and focused on the work still ahead.
