Read Big. Read Real. Read Together.
Ignite a Passion for the Bible with the Church-Wide Community Bible Experience®
Jim Cymbala, Pastor of Brooklyn Tabernacle Church
“I highly recommend the Community Bible Experience® resources … The Brooklyn Tabernacle congregation was deeply impacted as we utilized this valuable tool through an entire calendar year. Seeing our membership read through the New Testament in this logical way made me and the pastoral staff very happy. I am delighted to recommend The Books of The Bible™ to every believer who loves the Word of God.”

Nothing is more important to church vitality—and personal spiritual growth—than a deep, sustained connection with the Bible.
The Community Bible Experience®, created by Biblica, will reignite your entire church’s passion for the Scriptures and help them develop a life-long habit of Bible reading.
This proven, complete church-wide experience covers the entire Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, and includes comprehensive adult, student, children’s, and preschool materials in the accurate, readable, and clear NIV translation for adults and teens, and the easy-to-read NIrV for kids. Now your entire church can experience the Bible in community with resources for all ages!
READ BIG — For each of the four books, adults and teens will read 12-15 pages a day, 5 days a week for 8 weeks. The Books of the Bible™ is an engaging approach to Scripture. Not a verse here or a chapter there, but whole books read in their original context. The program is also very flexible to meet the needs of any church schedule.
READ REAL — No more chapter and verse numbers. No more study notes. No more cross reference or footnotes. No more red letters. The Books of the Bible™ is a fresh yet ancient presentation of Scripture. It strips away centuries of added formatting so you can read and enjoy just the Bible text.
READ TOGETHER — Learning happens best in community, over time. The Community Bible Experience® is a new way to talk about the Bible: less like a Bible study, more like a book club. This church-wide program welcomes everyone no matter how much (or little) of the Bible they have already read. Guided questions are provided to facilitate meaningful discussion.

Praise for the Community Bible Experience®
“The Community Bible Experience was a rich and rewarding experience for the family of Ada Bible Church. Reading through the entire New Testament over eight weeks united our church community around a common goal. It provided a great structure for dialoguing over scripture as we reflected from week to week. I highly recommend it for any pastor looking for a Bible reading program for their whole church.”–Jeff Manion, Senior Pastor, Ada Bible Church
“Sometimes the best ideas are the simplest. The Books of the Bible sweeps away many of the pious additions that can obscure the ancient text of Scripture, revealing connections that readers have all to often missed.”–Andy Crouch, Christianity Today
