Spreading the Gospel: A Year of Faithfulness and Provision
As we reflect on the past year, we are reminded of the Lord’s incredible faithfulness and provision. At the heart of our ministry is the unwavering commitment to share the Gospel with the world, and we are humbled by the opportunities we’ve had to do so.
Reaching the World with the ESV Bible
Over the past 12 months, more than 26 million printed editions of the ESV Bible have been published and distributed worldwide. This includes over 100,000 ESV Global Study Bibles given to pastors and church leaders in 37 countries, bringing the total to over 350,000 in just three years. We’ve also provided over 34,000 Bibles, books, and Gospel tracts to prison ministries in the US and around the world.
Equipping Leaders and Sharing the Gospel
We’ve had the privilege of presenting a special edition of the ESV Bible to over 900 incoming cadets at The United States Military Academy, continuing a tradition that started 149 years ago. Additionally, we’ve partnered with the Chinese church to publish about 100,000 copies of the Chinese Study Bible in Mainland China, including providing a free copy to 5,000 seminary students.
Digital Outreach and Translation Projects
Our digital Bible resources have been accessed over 1.6 billion times, and we’re committed to expanding our reach through strategic translation projects. We’re currently supporting the translation of ESV Study Bible notes into Arabic and Tamil, languages spoken by over 343 million people worldwide.
