COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Aug. 27 /Christian Newswire/ -- For the price of a greeting card or a café latte, individuals and churches can now purchase Biblica's full-size, easy-to-read paperback Bible or New Testament in the popular New International Version® (NIV) translation at their local Christian bookstore.

Biblica, formerly International Bible Society (an affiliate of IBS-STL), will release the outreach NIV Bible ($3.99 each) and New Testament ($1.50) in August. Both are also available in case lots at discounted prices from Christian retail stores everywhere.

The Bibles and New Testaments are ideal for:

• evangelism

• church small groups

• Sunday school classrooms

• back-to-school ministry

• community outreach

• prison ministry

• Christmas outreach

Biblica's NIV Bibles and New Testaments feature an attractive four-color cover; easy-to-read two-column format easy on readers' eyes; and just enough helps (a short Bible-reading plan and abridged concordance/dictionary) to guide readers new to the Bible without overwhelming them.

"These outreach Bibles provide individuals and churches with a great opportunity to reach out to their community with God's Word," said Mike Dworak, Biblica Marketing Director. "The NIV is the most popular modern-English Bible version worldwide. It's easy to read, it uses contemporary language, and yet it's faithful to the original Bible texts and languages."

Dworak said the low-cost Bibles are especially welcome during the economic downturn. "Churches and individuals need affordable ways to share God's Word with their community. The price on Biblica's ministry-priced outreach Bibles is a great value, especially for full-size NIV Bibles and New Testaments."
