We see education, politics, arts and the media as the principal drivers of our modern day culture. 

We work in and through these areas to address the needs of those who have the Bible on tap but don't see what role it has to play in everyday life.  We also work to increase the confidence of the Church in the Scriptures, and resource Christians as they seek to apply the Bible to the whole of their lives.

Our mission has also always included producing and making available Bibles in English and Welsh for the domestic audience. We continue to produce the Bible in a number of English and Welsh traditional and modern translations.  We are currently supporting new transations into modern Welsh and Cornish, and have assisted with the British Sign Language Bible Translation project.

Comment: doing Bible like Eddie Izzard
Comment: doing Bible like Eddie Izzard I want to go to a Bible study led by Eddie Izzard. That's my conclusion after seeing his latest show, Force Majeure, recently.

More just 'fun' (shockingly, for a comedian).
