Over the years, I have had the privilege of seeing firsthand the difference sound theological resources can make in a pastor’s life and ministry. In many parts of Africa, pastors serve their churches faithfully with very limited access to the books and resources many of us take for granted.
That is why I am so grateful for our partnership with Global Christian Book Fund.
Through GCBF’s support of Central Africa Baptist University, more than 3,000 pastors have received commentaries, study Bibles, books on biblical theology, and other valuable ministry resources. I have watched these books go directly into the hands of men who are preaching the Word, discipling believers, and leading local churches across south-central Africa.
GCBF has also played an important role in helping us build the Paul Kasonga Theological Library at CABU. The library is used every day by students and ministry leaders as they prepare to serve Christ and his church throughout the region.
What I appreciate about Global Christian Book Fund is that its investment does not stop with the person who receives a book. Put a good commentary or theological resource into the hands of a faithful pastor, and it becomes part of his preaching and teaching for years to come. His congregation benefits. The leaders he trains benefit. Ultimately, churches are strengthened.
I am personally grateful for Global Christian Book Fund and for the investment it has made in Central Africa Baptist University and in the African church. I gladly recommend this ministry to others who share a burden for strengthening the church around the world.
If you are looking for a ministry to support financially, I would encourage you to consider GCBF. Few investments have the potential to multiply as much as placing sound biblical resources in the hands of pastors who will faithfully teach God’s Word to others.

Global Christian Book Fund (GCBF) has been a grand blessing to Reaching Africa’s Unreached (RAU). We are located in Northern Uganda, just 2 kilometers from the South Sudan border.
Our primary vision is to support local church leaders and strengthen them in the essential, foundational doctrines of the Christian faith. We primarily achieve this through training modules and the distribution of Bibles, Study Bibles, and biblically sound books.
GCBF has been a great partner in getting these resources to us so that we can place them into the hands of faithful leaders who will, in turn, train others, ensuring that local churches can be healthy and reproductive. We give thanks and praise for Global Christian Book Fund!
Jacob Lee, Missionary, Reaching Africa’s Unreached
I have been an enthusiastic supporter of the Global Christian Book Fund since its inception. Through Craig’s careful leadership, tireless efforts, and strong relationships, biblically faithful books have reached countries, institutions, churches, and individuals who would otherwise have had little or no access to these valuable resources.
It has been a great encouragement to watch this ministry grow and its reach expand over the years, bringing sound Christian literature into places where it is so greatly needed. I pray that the Lord will continue to bless this vital work, enabling it to grow, flourish, and equip many more believers around the world for years to come.
Anthony Gosling, Chief Executive Officer, 10ofthose
Global Christian Book Fund has been one of our closest ministry partners for almost a decade. They are driven by a great passion to resource the global church, particularly where there are the greatest needs for Bibles and trustworthy books. Over and over again, they have helped us get physical resources to critical locations. We are grateful for our longstanding partnership in helping to equip church leaders around the world.
