1 United Bible Societies Global Scripture Distribution Report 2016 Annual Progress UBS Global Scripture Distribution Report
2 Scripture distribution tops 400 million for third year running For the third year running, Bible Societies have distributed more than 400 million Scripture items around the world including more than 34 million. That s enough for more than 5% of the world s population. And since the beginning of the decade, the United Bible Societies fellowship (UBS) has distributed enough Scripture material for two out of every five people on the planet. Global Scripture distribution in 2016 The overall 2016 total almost million includes,, Gospels and smaller Scripture items like booklets for people learning to read. It s slightly lower than 2015 s total, but is up on the 2010 total by more than 34 million items. The figures are compiled from annual Scripture distribution numbers reported by Bible Societies around the world, and include local sales and exports of Scripture material*. Europe and the Middle East Rise of the non-print Bible The distribution of nonprint such as digital downloads, CDs, Scripture texts and DVDs has more than doubled across the world in 2016, driven by the growing demand for on our phones and devices. More than three million nonprint were distributed in 2016, up from less than 1.3 million in There s been an even sharper increase since 2010, when the Fellowship distributed less than 200,000 non-print in a year. The trend mirrors growing internet use around the world. Around 45% of the world s population now have access to the internet 1, and by 2020 seven out of every 10 people on the planet will own a smartphone 2. We spend more time on our phones than any other media. Top of the non-print Bible distribution list is Brazil, where the UBS Bible App was launched in August More than 1.5 million were made available through it in The app is now being used by more than 30 Bible Societies across the world. It offers free downloadable Bible translations, and premium Non print Bible distribution this decade content such as study are available to buy. Meanwhile, the global Digital Bible Library now has Scripture in 1,134 languages, which reach a total audience of more than five billion people. UBS has supplied more than 80% of the full held in the library. UBS Digital Publishing Strategist Nelson Saba said, Bible Societies are extremely successful at printing, and now we are right at the forefront of digital Bible mission too. 2,983,938 9,275, , , , , ,495 1,264,624 3,092,066 Americas 15,666, ,016,106 Africa ,627,682 9,030,306 Asia Pacific One million non-print for Iranians Total Global Figures ,014,054 55,034,154 34,291,757 13,468, ,356,200 *Data was collected up to the end of May % of Bible Societies responded. In the case of non-respondents, the previous 2 year s average data was given as their 2016 distribution data. The Iranian Bible Society, which supplies Persian Scriptures to Iranian Christians around the world, has made God s Word available to more than 1.5 million people in The organisation, which was formed in 2014 after Bible Society s offices in Iran were closed in 1990, distributed a million nonprint and half a million non-print New, and exported 7,500 and 9,400 New. It s double what they distributed in Nahid Sepehrifard, who leads the team, said, The figure of one million is a very conservative estimate. The reality is a much larger impact. We are using multiple platforms satellite TV, radio, the internet, micro SD cards and intranet - to distribute audio and digital versions of the Today s Persian Version Bible in many shapes and formats. 1 2 UBS Global Scripture Distribution Report 2016 Internetlivestats.com. 2 Ericsson Mobility Report, UBS Global Scripture Distribution Report
3 Top five countries for the local distribution of full in 2016 USA 2,981,407 China 3,514,286 Nigeria 1,965,001 India 1,897,995 Distribution surges Brazil Many countries have seen a sudden spike in Bible distribution in In Bangladesh, where nine out of 10 people are Muslim, the Bible Society team distributed more than eight times as many New as in the previous year. Altogether they provided 105,081 New through book fairs, distribution among rural believers and an initiative to reach mothers and families. A spokesman said, Through these Scriptures, many lives have been transformed, and many have accepted Christ. Church attendance has increased, children have a good spiritual foundation and family relationships are strengthened. The Palestinian Bible Society distributed five times as many New in 2016, compared to This was against a backdrop of violent outbursts between Israelis and Palestinians throughout the year, which raised tension and volatility in the region. And during a historic year for Cuba, when former ruler Fidel Castro died and Barack Obama, then President of the United States, made an unprecedented visit to the country, Scripture distribution soared. The number of and Scripture portions made available by the Cuba Bible Commission more than doubled, with more than 350,000 full provided in the nation. The distribution effort was part of the One million for Cuba campaign, which was launched in 2013 and is due to run until the end of next year. Meanwhile, significant increases were also seen in Bible distribution in Germany where the team provided more than twice as many to people in 2016, compared to 2015 and the United States of America which saw a big increase in the distribution of New. John Greco, Managing Director of Operations at American Bible Society, said, Our long term vision is to have 100 million people in the US actively engaged with God s word by 2026, and we are focusing on major cities with, New and structured engagement programmes. So also will be the word that I speak it will not fail to do what I plan for it; it will do everything I send it to do. Isaiah 55:11 (GNT) 6,773,421 Milestone for Brazil At the end of 2016, Bible Society of Brazil reached the milestone of 150 million and New produced at its Bible Press since It s one of the largest printing plants in the world primarily for the production of Scriptures. Executive Director Rudi Zimmer said, In recent decades, more than in any other period, Brazilian churches have been involved in spreading the Word, making Brazil the largest field of Holy Scripture distribution around the world today. Shifting trends in Africa The distribution of in Africa went up by almost a third between 2015 and 2016, and the distribution of other Scripture booklets and leaflets all increased over the same period. However, the total Scripture distribution across the continent has fallen for the third year running. In 2013, almost 15.6 million Scripture items were distributed, including 6.7 million full. But over the past three years, Scripture distribution in Africa has dropped by 42%. In 2016 just over nine million Scripture items were provided. African Bible Societies continue to distribute the highest percentage of full out of any region in the world. In 2016, three out of four of all Scripture items made available in Africa was a full Bible. By comparison, just 7% of Scripture distributed in the other three regions have been full. 4 UBS Global Scripture Distribution Report 2016 UBS Global Scripture Distribution Report
