Description
We provide Gods Word to hard-to-reach places, bringing hope across barriers of geography, translation, oppression and injustice. We bring the restorative words of Scripture to heal and build the new faith of survivors of trauma and injustice across the globe. In addition, we grow engagement where the Bible lacks a strong voice, inviting millions to reconsider and renew their relationship with God’s Word.
History
Established in 1816, American Bible Society history follows closely and even intersects the history of our nation. In fact, ABS early leadership reads like a Whos Who of patriots. Our first president was Elias Boudinot, former president of the Continental Congress. John Jay, John Quincy Adams, DeWitt Clinton and James Fennimore Cooper also played significant roles, as did Rutherford B. Hayes, Benjamin Harrison and Francis Scott Key.
