This article looks at the life of William Cameron Townsend, or Uncle Cam as he was also called. Focus is given to the role he played in translating the Bible to native languages out of the conviction that this is the greatest way of doing mission work. He founded the Wycliffe organization, which focused on Bible translation into native languages. The article closes by looking at the questions: who is responsible to translate the Bible, and how must it be done?
