Your Partners in World Evangelism
The banquet table is being prepared for us – and never before has our world hungered so much for the saving Message of Jesus Christ.
Holman Bible Outreach International, a new Bible Society sponsored by LifeWay Christian Resources, recognizes our individual and corporate responsibility to invite a searching world to find timeless Truth within God’s Word. HBOI is designed to partner with churches, missions organizations and other outreach ministries by providing quality evangelistic and discipleship Bible products at prices low enough to maximize your ministry’s budget.
What makes our Bible Society different is the strong Gospel message included in every Bible, New Testament and Scripture portion we publish. Our Bibles are packed with helpful tools including the Roman Road, daily devotionals, and other helps to guide the reader into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and help disciple them in their faith walk.
All of our Bibles are offered at extremely low prices with very little mark up in order to help extend your evangelism efforts. We are committed and passionate about sharing the Gospel, and welcome the opportunity to partner with your church or ministry in reaching people for Christ. Our loving Host will soon be calling us home for the banquet. Until that day, let us be busy about God’s work. Call us today to begin an effective partnership in inviting a hurting world to our Lord’s precious table.
All of our New Testaments, Bibles and Foreign Translations are available for order online or by telephone. Our products are now also conveniently available at your local LifeWay Christian Store.

About Us
HBOI is a non-profit entity of LifeWay Christian Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention. HBOI has its offices in Nashville, Tennessee and is supported in its daily operations by Broadman and Holman Publishing to keep overhead costs at a minimum so that HBOI can create low cost affordable Bibles and associated products for the purpose of evangelism.
Daily operations and staff are managed by HBOI’s Executive Director, Phill Burgess, who reports to the HBOI Advisory Board and the LifeWay Christian Resources Trustee Board.
“You can’t disciple people who aren’t Christians so we intend to do everything we can to help people and churches do evangelism.”

A Message from HBOI’s Executive Director
We receive many requests throughout the year for free and discounted Bibles from individuals and ministries that cannot afford to purchase them. No request is too small. We’ve sent a single Bible to a prisoner in California as part of our Sparrow Project and we’ve supplied more than 100,000 copies of The Gift New Testament to a Baptist State Convention. Our goal is to help Christians and their ministries that are sent by the Lord with tools that support them living out this passage: ”And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: How welcome are the feet of those who announce the gospel of good things!” Romans 10:15 (HCSB)

As a little boy growing up in eastern Kentucky I remember with vivid clarity Brother Ross Figart, Director of Missions for the Boones Creek Association sharing in a Sunday evening service the tremendous work and challenges of missionaries sent by the International Mission Board and supported in part by the Lottie Moon program. I remember seeing the slide of a little boy around my age from somewhere in the Far East, looking up into the camera with tired hungry eyes. With tears in my eyes and wondering if I could help to make a difference I placed my quarter in the offering plate. It was a tiny miracle for a boy bent on purchasing some baseball cards with that quarter. Here at HBOI we want to support the evangelism miracles your group is praying for. We know God’s Word never goes out empty... ”so My word that comes from My mouth will not return empty, but it will accomplish what I please, and will prosper in what I send it to do” Isaiah 55:11 (HCSB).
In Christ,
Phill
