Daniel Watters grew up in Asia, where he experienced firsthand the life-changing impact of Bible translation through his parents’ work in a remote language community. Inspired by their example, he joined Wycliffe USA in 1992 shortly after earning a Bachelor of Arts in linguistics from the University of Washington. He later completed a Master of Arts in linguistics and exegesis at Trinity Western University in 2000. From 1994 to 2019, Daniel served in Asia through Wycliffe USA and a partner organization, holding various administrative and leadership positions. Today, Daniel serves on the Global Partnerships team at Wycliffe USA.
Something remarkable is unfolding in Bible translation right now. On the one hand, there are decades of foundational work by a family of Bible translation organizations, on the other hand, there’s the vibrant, growing local church movement marked by an enthusiasm and a passion for reaching the unreached, and these two pathways are converging.
