Bible Society

The need we address:
Bible Society exists because millions lack the Bible in a language they can understand, in a form they can use or at a price they can afford. At the same time millions still have no understanding of the Bible’s value for them and their communities.
 
We call this Bible poverty.
 
The vision we have:
We are working to see a day when the Bible’s God-given revelation, inspiration and wisdom is shaping the lives and communities of people everywhere.
 
Our task is urgent. This is because of what people, communities and nations lose when the Bible’s life-changing message is not theirs.
 
Our task is huge:
More than 4,400 languages still wait for even one book of the Bible.
Though a billion people cannot read, only 3 per cent of languages have the Bible in audio.
