• Using a translation brief, how would you identify and invite a balanced group of church leader checkers across networks and demographics? Describe your steps.
• A language has many churches, but only one network is represented on your list. How would you adjust your plan to ensure broad church acceptance?
• Describe the sequence of tasks you expect church leader checkers to perform during an accuracy check and the purpose of each step.
