Brothers and Sisters serving alongside you
All of us here at The Good Book Company are passionate about the Lord Jesus, His word, His church and His gospel of grace. Motivated by this passion and our involvement in local churches, it is our privilege to create and publish biblical, relevant and accessible resources that will encourage you and your church family to keep going, keep growing and keep sharing your faith.
As an international Christian publisher, our Bible studies, books, devotionals, videos, tracts, evangelistic courses and training materials are used throughout the English-speaking world, and in translation to over 35 languages worldwide.
Biblical
We are trustworthy
Our resources put the word of God in the driver's seat, so you can trust them.
Relevant
We're with you
We work hard at making discipleship, church and evangelistic materials relevant in a rapidly changing culture.
Accessible
We'll make it connect
We focus on producing resources in numerous formats that help ordinary Christians grapple with issues of faith, life and Christian belief.
Ministry-minded
We are keen to make sure we do not to take financial support away from local churches and Christian charities, so we operate as a business. We want to encourage Christians in their faith and the advancement of the gospel, so we recycle our profits. For example, translating our resources into other languages and producing a number of resources that are important from a ministry perspective, even though they are not highly valuable from a commercial perspective.
