Despite the coronavirus outbreak, according to Lifeway Christian Resources, Bible sales increased across the globe this year.
Lifeway Christian Resources, a leading provider of Christian books and educational materials, noted in a new report that Bible sales between April and June increased significantly.
Lifeway CEO Ben Mandrell believes that the increase in Bibles can be attributed to people’s desire to seek hope and healing during times of great difficulty, such as the pandemic.
“We believe this is no accident, as people often go to the Bible as a source of hope in times of crisis and uncertainty," Mandrell said.
He explained that people “draw hope from scripture because in it they see a God who is with us during our suffering. The Bible, as God's words to us, is a reminder that He doesn't leave us to walk through difficult times alone."

This is wonderful! Thanking God ... Praying people will seek out solid mentors to aid them in studying, understanding, and applying God' Word to their lives.
