COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Dec. 1, 2017 /Christian Newswire/ -- Biblica, The International Bible Society has announced the expansion of distribution partners for the Nueva Versión International (NVI) Bible. In addition to long-term partner, Vida-Zondervan, Biblica has recently agreed to partner with Lifeway Publishers to provide even greater access to God's Word in a contemporary translation for Spanish speakers.

For over 15 years, Biblica and Vida-Zondervan have successfully partnered to bring the NVI to  readers and churches worldwide.  Biblica is excited to add Lifeway to their publishing strategy in an effort to increase distribution and opportunities for more people to engage in the NVI throughout the region.

Biblica looks forward to seeing more lives touched by Christ through His Word as this new and exciting publishing partnership moves forward.

"When contemporary translations of the Bible are placed in people's hands, it has the power to change everything in their life – it's the living Word of God! Through the expansion of our publishing partnership of Biblica, Vida-Zondervan and Lifeway, we are thrilled to see the Word of God reach more people." said Stephen Cave, Biblica's Chief Ministry Officer.
