Literature Ministry

There are very few resources inside China for believers to access, no Christian bookstores, no Bible apps, and some churches even share Bibles amongst themselves. After printing and delivering many books and Bibles since the mid-80s it became increasingly difficult to get these resources safely to the places that needed them. We were swamped with requests for book and Bibles, but the demand was far greater than our ability to supply. We now only print books for special reasons, as distribution is extremely difficult in these days and very unsafe for the printers and the recipients. Although we can print Bibles through safe contacts for specific reasons.

In 2016 our literature team and a fellow co-worker from another organisation sat down to discuss the massive demand and the lack of supply and to try to find a way forward. Out of that meeting came the inspired idea to supply all the books and Bibles we had been distributing physically as paper copies, together with any other material we could get access to, in the form of a smartphone app and put all the data onto a MicroSD card.

That is when this minisrty was started! After months of development and testing, we launched our first copies inside China, and after a steady start to copying and distribution, we are now producing and delivering thousands of cards every year to needy believers; but again the demand is overwhelming. However, the improvement over sending physical books is enormous.  We are now sending cards with not one or two books, but with whole libraries of books and Bibles together with hundreds of other resources such as video and audio training materials.
