The Bible for professionals
We offer various tools and resources for theologians, pastors, ministers, teachers, and other people who work with the Bible. We do this through our webinars, Bible study materials, or a professional journal. During the webinars, as a pastor, you will discover more about specific Bible texts and how to apply them, for example in a sermon or small group work.
Rev. André van der Graaf also uses material from the NBG for his work: ' As a pastor, I make grateful use of the knowledge and tools of the Bible Society. I share their mission and therefore support them monthly! '
