Persecuted Christians Need God’s Word

What would it be like … not having access to a Bible?

How would you survive the challenges of life without being able to read or hear God’s Word to strengthen you and give you hope?

There are significant numbers of Christians living in hostile areas and restricted nations today. And while this growth of the church is wonderful news, it has produced an ever-growing need for Bibles.

At a recent distribution in India, about 75 percent of those receiving Bibles were new believers. “Most of the pastors … expressed that their churches are growing both in number as well as in spiritual maturity,” a Christian worker said. “Members are now sensing their responsibility of reading, listening and sharing [Scripture] with their friends and neighbors.” And as these new believers study God’s Word, they become better prepared to face persecution in the days ahead.

VOM continues to distribute print, digital and audio Bibles in hostile areas and restricted nations — to make sure every believer has his or her own copy.

We believe every Christian in hostile areas and restricted nations can and should have their own copy of God’s Word. You can be a part of this kingdom-building work.

Together, we can help provide a Bible for Every Believer through the 200,000 Bible Challenge.

You can shine the light of God’s Word in the darkest places today. When we reach the Challenge goal, the ministry impact will be doubled … sending twice as many Bibles to persecuted brothers and sisters!

You will be part of getting Bibles to new believers like Kashi, from India.

Kashi, a former Hindu who came to know Christ, had longed for a Bible but never been able to obtain one. Her prayer was answered when she received her own copy of God’s Word at a VOM-sponsored Bible distribution. “It is hard for me to go to church because of my family situation, as they do not allow me to go,” she told a front-line worker. “But I can study about God now from the Bible.”

Another new Christian, Gangamma, said, “I have endured a lot of persecution at the hands of my parents and husband. But they are nothing compared to knowing that the Lord Jesus cleansed me of all my sins. Today is another great day for me, as my long-lasting desire for a Bible has been fulfilled.”

This Bible Challenge will help us get God’s Word into the hands of new believers like Kashi and Gangamma, who otherwise might never receive it.
