Mine included. We weep for now, but as Scripture declares, sorrow only lasts for the night, and joy comes in the morning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Before his mother&#8217;s death, Morgan Jackson said that she shared a vision with him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She told me the Lord showed her the place He had prepared for her. She was surprised that it wasn\u2019t a mansion. I reminded her that Jesus never said He was going to prepare a mansion, but that He was going to prepare a room,&#8221; Morgan Jackson wrote. &#8220;We laughed and then she continued, &#8216;It was a room, and I could share it with others, or I could keep it for myself.&#8217; All I know is that her room must be amazing so it can hold the thousands and thousands of people from every nation, tribe, and tongue who will visit her to thank her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Anet Jackson was born in 1935. She and her husband, Jerry Jackson, originally arrived in Albuquerque in 1971 to serve as intern missionaries to the Hopi and Navajo people. They founded FCBH, originally known as Hosanna, in 1972 as a library for lending cassette tapes.<\/p>\n<p>Over time, the ministry shifted toward recording books of the Bible and distributing them globally. Anet Jackson often traveled across the world to advance their efforts.<\/p>\n<p>At present, FCBH distributes\u00a0audio copies of the Bible in over 2,500 languages, with the stated goal to \u201censure that every translated language has Scripture by the year 2033.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had to trust God,\u201d Jackson recounted in a recent interview. \u201cAnd God was right there teaching me, directing me by His Holy Spirit, and I\u2019ve had a wonderful life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think when you get into the Scriptures and understand them, that\u2019s what Jesus came [to do] was to bring hope. That this life is not it. There\u2019s a wonderful life beyond here and there\u2019s hope in a better life. \u2026 And our hope is in Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Follow Michael Gryboski on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MichaelGryboski?hc_ref=SEARCH&amp;fref=nf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Twitter <\/a> or Facebook<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Michael Gryboski, Editor Tuesday, December 23, 2025 Quick Summary AI Summary Anet Jackson, co-founder of Faith Comes By Hearing, has died at age 90.
