The BibleStick

Just in time for Marine Corp Day & Veterans Day

As we take the time to remember those who sacrificed for our freedoms, lets give back to those who are serving now.


Christian ministry plans Veterans Day salute

USA (MNN) -- November 11 is Veterans Day, an annual American holiday honoring military veterans. It's a good time to remember the troops who face danger daily. The love of Christ is bringing hope. Troy Carl with Faith Comes By Hearing says the "iPod" generation is responding positively to the military BibleStick. In fact, "We really hope that people will take this opportunity to sponsor a soldier, provide the pure Scripture that meets their challenges and helps give them comfort in their time of need." A BibleStick is a digital audio player loaded with an Audio Drama New Testament, specially geared for combat zones. The response? "Over 22,000 military BibleSticks have been distributed through chaplains all around the world, and it's having a tremendous impact. Of course, now they're saying, 'Give us more!'" Hundreds have requested one, only to find that they're already gone. How can you help? Carl says, "You can sponsor a soldier with a military stick for $25, and that also includes our ministry providing an audio Bible on disk to their loved one."
