An alliance for the world's hardest-to-reach places
More people are ready to receive God’s Word than at any moment in history. Yet millions still lack meaningful access.
Close the Bible Gap is an alliance of Bible ministries, churches, and investors working together to change that in the 88 countries where the need is greatest and the barriers are hardest to overcome alone.
1 Billion
people living without meaningful access to Scripture.
0%
of the world now has Scripture translated into their language.
0 Million
new churches planted in the last decade, many in restricted regions.
0+
field partners and church networks already engaged.
A church equipped with Scripture becomes a community where people encounter Jesus, grow in faith, and bring hope to those still waiting.
Why an alliance, and why now?
