Together we can...

There is a greater hunger for God's Word globally today than at any time in history. However, over two hundred and fifty million people have no access to Scriptures in any form, while billions more are denied the Word through poverty, illiteracy, restrictions and persecution. Absence of the Word threatens church growth, cripples spiritul maturity and breeds heresy.

But no one organisation has sufficient personnel or resources to meet this huge challenge. So Bible agencies are coming together to develop strategies of closer cooperation.

Each agency has a unique ministry, but in partnership all have a common aim - to give people, both in Australia and overseas, the Word of God in a form they can best understand. By working together we avoid overlapping efforts and unhelpful competition. In some areas, we are pooling resources to strengthen our impact - strength and effectiveness lie in unity.

Our Purpose

  • We cooperate together to serve the Church.

  • We enable people to understand the Bible, to change their lives.

  • We translate, produce in print and non-print media, and distribute, the Word of God in the people's heart language.

Our Strategy

  • Encouraging the vision of Australian churches for the translation, distribution and use of the Word.

  • Training and resourcing Christians in Australia and overseas in translation, literacy, distribution and recording.

  • Addressing the huge need for the Word in non-print media.

  • Making Scripture more readily accessible to minority groups.

Together we can give the Word to the World

For each agency this cooperation is a step of faith. We believe the barriers that hinder the availability and use of the Bible can be overcome.

Bible Agencies Australia is committed to work together to make the Word of God available to everyone on earth, in their own heart language.
