In thirty years over 100 million Bibles have been printed to keep up with global demand. Yet in the UK 90% of people don’t read it. One third of 15-year-olds don’t know that the nativity story is from the Bible, and the same percentage of adults believe the plot of The Hunger Games is from the Bible. Many people don’t think the Bible is relevant to them. The Bible Society is determined to change that, and is working to help people recognise the value of the Bible by developing resources that help local churches to engage more deeply with Scripture. It is sending thousands of volunteers into primary schools to share Bible stories with a generation almost entirely unfamiliar with them. In politics, media and the arts they are bringing the Bible to life in fresh, exciting and relevant ways with a range of activities and resources in both English and Welsh.
