The most meaningful gift you can give this year is God’s Word!

What’s the best gift you’ve received?

As Christmas approaches, we get to celebrate the best gift ever—the gift of Jesus.

Scripture tells us that we did nothing to earn or deserve this gift. God demonstrated generosity by freely sending Jesus to us.

But there are still people who haven’t experienced the hope that comes from reading God’s Word.

This Christmas, you have the opportunity to share the good news of Jesus by giving God’s Word to others.

When you give a gift before the end of the year, you’re helping more people get free, unlimited access to the hope of God’s Word through the Bible App.

2023 Verse of the Year

The Bible verse shared, bookmarked, and highlighted most often by the global YouVersion Community during 2023 is…

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

Isaiah 41:10

As you look back on this year, think of a time when you needed to be reminded of God’s Presence, His love, and His strength.

Maybe you need those things right now.

You’re a part of a global Community experiencing the same hope in different languages and countries around the world.

You’re not alone.

Think of someone in your life who needs to hear that God is with them today, and encourage them with this special Verse Image.

Thank you for helping us reach our goal this Giving Tuesday!

Family smiling

We’re grateful for our Community!

We are amazed at what God can do through the generosity of our global Community when we all come together.

This year, we had over 78,000 people give during Giving Tuesday!

Together, we exceeded the US$2 million match.

By giving to YouVersion, you help get the Bible to even more people who otherwise wouldn’t have access to it. People like Yamil, who say:

“The app as a whole has been nothing short of a spiritual anchor in my life. It provides both solace and guidance, always pointing me towards deeper communion with God.”

We are so thankful for a Community that chooses to live generously and be part of this Giving Tuesday movement!

And, we believe God is still going to do infinitely more to reach people around the world.

Let’s reach millions this Giving Tuesday!

God can do more with your generosity than you imagine

When you give a gift today, it could double.

Thanks to a generous donor, every dollar given by our Community this Giving Tuesday will be matched, dollar-for-dollar, up to US$2 million total. So if we reach US$2 million today, it automatically becomes US$4 million!

Whether it’s US$10, US$25, or US$100, whatever you’re able to give will have twice the impact, helping millions of people around the world experience God’s Word.
