I recently packed up my office, all 210 book-feet of them, and in the process, realized I had about 30 Bibles (At least I’m not Bill Chamberlain, who owns over 2000 different English versions). I didn’t need them all, and didn’t want to throw any out, so ended up donating about a dozen to my pastor to give away. I hope he is able to use them, but I imagine that most will just end up collecting dust somewhere.
Today, I found something I wish I had done with them. Michigan-based Christian Resources International will help you send your used Bibles overseas. For only $11, you can send your extra Bible to someone who needs it. Also, Jerry Kingery directs an organization called The Bible Foundation which networks Bible drives for use in missions organizations. Check both out.
Of course, if you are simply interested in distributing new Bibles, we regularly send out Bibles through the Gideons and Bible’s Unbound.
