The goal of this project is to Open The Bible to people serving in the ADF. By resourcing ADF chaplains and other Christian ministries with Scriptures and Gospel materials, they can engage people with God’s word. This grant shares the transformative hope of the gospel, equipping gospel workers with both God’s word and the ability to encourage and disciple those they work with.  

In 2025, BSA is looking to deepen our warm relationships with the ADF chaplaincy and provide vital Scriptures and resources that they need to support and encourage Australian Armed Forces personnel. 

The impact of this Scripture grant is ultimately seen in the changed lives of recipients. BSA has supported and partnered with Military Christian Fellowship-Australia (MCF-A), Focus Military Ministry, Solid Rock ministries, Sallyman/Sallyma’am, Everyman’s Welfare Service, and AMCF (the international arm of MCF-A) as well as the chaplains who work within the ADF, and ADFA. In addition to this, BSA reprinted the Waterproof New Testament with Psalms and Proverbs for the Navy, Army and RAAF, as well as the CEV full Bible.  

BSA continued to provide its current range of camouflage scriptures, ADF specialty books and other supportive gospel materials to the ADF. BSA partnered with ADF support ministries to produce new materials that help ADFA graduates dig into the Bible and think through the issues of service in light of Christ.
