Our Savior God desires all men to be saved and to come to the full knowledge of the truth.

1 Timothy 2:3–4

We’re believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, and we love the Bible!

Bibles for America (BfA) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to give away free copies of the New Testament Recovery Version and Christian books throughout the United States. We’re believers in the Lord Jesus Christ (see our statement of faith), and we love the Bible!

The unique study Bible and Christian books we give away have helped us personally to understand God’s purpose for mankind and to see Christ as the One of peerless worth. Now we share them freely so more people can be spiritually nourished, grow in the Lord, and be brought on to the full knowledge of the truth.

Our main office is in Irvine, California. At our nearby distribution center, faithful volunteers ship out the free Bibles and books while praying for every recipient. We also go on tours throughout the US to university campuses, community events, and other locations to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with people and give away our Bibles and books in person.

As a nonprofit organization, we depend on donations to fulfill our mission. That’s how we can make our materials absolutely free to anyone who wants them. We thank the Lord for leading so many to support BfA with their time, their money, and their prayers, so that millions of people across America can enjoy the free Bible and books we give away.

Our History

Reading the New Testament Recovery Version has taken me to a higher level. I finally feel like I am eating the meat, not just the milk of the Word...I can't thank the Lord enough and everyone who has made this possible.

Our Impact

Since Bibles for America first began in 2000, we’ve given away over 2 million copies of the New Testament Recovery Version to people all across the US. We’ve also given away over 3 million copies of our free Christian books, and hundreds of thousands of people have downloaded the digital copies of the books from our site.

We frequently hear from people who have received the New Testaments and books remarking how they’ve benefited from them. Here are two comments:

“This little book set [Basic Elements of the Christian Life, vols. 1-3] has taught me more in 2 days than any other booklets I've read in 2.5 years. Thank you so much. I'm currently on volume 3. Wonderful little books they are.”—Teri M., Wenatchee, WA

“This is the best study Bible I own. The commentary is excellent and sheds tremendous light on the Word. As I read it I am constantly thanking God for bringing such an enlightened view of His Word into my life. God is awesome, profound, and always right on time.”—Teej R., Des Moines, IA
