“YouVersion became a lifeline for me.”

Alone and depressed, Diya knew she needed to turn to Jesus, but she didn’t know where to begin. But then—she started using YouVersion.

“I found Isaiah 54:10 in YouVersion—and I just latched onto that verse. That verse is what kept me alive.”

Now, whenever Diya feels lonely, depressed, or isolated, she clings to God’s promises because she can access God’s Word wherever she goes.

Diya’s story is just one of many. Millions of people are drawing closer to God because of your generosity.

Equipping the Church

Through YouVersion for Churches, churches everywhere are now able to create a profile in YouVersion, allowing churches to connect with their community in the app.

100,000 users connected to a church

We can’t wait to see how God uses YouVersion for Churches to connect the world’s largest digital Christian community to their local church.

Released in early December, Daily Refresh is an all-new experience in YouVersion that curates timely and relevant Bible content. It provides a new pathway for people all over the world to connect with God every day.

When we started dreaming with OneHope to create a relevant Bible tool for children, we couldn’t have imagined what God would accomplish.

This year, we released a new version of the Bible App in Nigeria, Kenya, and Ghana, creating easier offline access for people to connect with God’s Word.

Since its release in September 2022, the targeted app has had over 1 million downloads and has expanded to over 30 additional African nations.

Erin, thank you.

Together, we get to be a part of the greatest mission on earth: to bring the best news in history to every person Jesus died for.

What we’ve experienced so far is just the beginning of what we believe God can do through your generosity. It is with gratitude and expectancy that we look forward to 2023.
