Bible League

Founded by William and Betty Chapman, an American couple who began to give Bibles to their neighbors who didn’t have, but promised to read them, Bible League started in 1938 as "American Home Bible League", which subsequently became the "World Home Bible League", and eventually, just "Bible League".

In 2007, Bible League placed 17.7 million Bibles and related literature in over 80 countries, and its cost per Bible is $4.

Bible League maintains offices in over 40 countries, including, Australia, Belarus, Bulgaria, Cambodia, Canada, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Egypt, England, Ethiopia, Germany, Kenya, Mexico, Moldova, Mozambique, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the Philippines, Romania, Russia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Uganda, Ukraine and Zimbabwe.

Strength

Instead of just delivering Bibles, Bible League couples them with Bible studies and church planters so that the Bibles are actually read and studied. Bible League annually plants over 5000 churches worldwide.

Weakness

Some of Bible League's statistics lack credibility. For example, its newsletters claim regarding China, “There may be only 1 Bible for every 50 to 70 Christians, and only 1 per 100 in rural areas.” A lesser organization can claim ignorance for such outdated information. Bible League cannot.
