   "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace". (Isaiah 9:6) As we celebrate the birth of our Savior, we are overwhelmed with gratitude for the peace and salvation found in Jesus Christ. We are also incredibly grateful to you.
   Thank you to every partner who supports this ministry. Your generosity allows our volunteers to place King James New Testaments in truck stops, restaurants, and stores across the US, Canada, and Mexico, offering the "Good News" freely to anyone who needs it.

We have amazing news to share: God has provided a way for your donations to go even further next year! Through a partnership with a Christian publisher in Japan, our printing costs are dropping to just $1.00 per Bible. This price reduction allows us to print more Bibles to meet the growing hunger for God’s Word. We praise God for this provision and for your continued partnership in spreading the Gospel!

Things Are Moving and Shaking at Good News Distribution!
We have just returned from the Lonesome Road Ministries 3-Fold Cord Conference, and what a powerful time of fellowship and ministry it was!
We also recently wrapped up the West Michigan Truck Show — another great opportunity to spread the Word.
Right now, we're assembling 2,000 Good News packets to distribute during our local 4th of July parade — planting seeds of faith right in our community.
Then it’s on to the Walcott Truckers Jamboree, the weekend after the 4th — another exciting opportunity to share the Gospel.
We’ve already distributed approximately 7500 copies of the new Good News Bibles — and we’re just getting started!
God is good, and time is short.
We invite you to be part of the mission — reach out, request some of our materials, and start sharing the Good News with those around you.

A Big Thank-You to Our Friends and Partners​!We are filled with joy and gratitude to announce that all 60,000 copies of the King James Plus New Testament Bibles have been printed and received!
Praise God for this incredible milestone. These Bibles are already being distributed across the country, reaching hearts and transforming lives with the truth of God's Word.
Mid-America Truck Show RecapGood News Distribution had an incredible time at the Mid-America Truck Show in Louisville, KY this spring.
At our booth, we handed out hundreds of Bibles, children’s devotionals, CDs, and other Christian resources.
Even more exciting--five individuals gave their hearts to Jesus at the ministry booths during the weekend!
One story stood out:
A young woman who visited our booth last year returned to share her testimony. At the time, she wasn’t sure if she even believed in God. But after taking a Bible, she began reading it. Last fall, she gave her life to Jesus, was baptized, and recently contacted us to request Bibles and resources for her new Bible and Flower Shop in Chattanooga, TN.
We’re praising God for His incredible, life-changing power!

​As I and other distribution volunteers are out on the road distributing Bibles and ministry materials to truck stops and other locations that we have racks in, we are witnessing the hunger for God's Word, by seeing empty racks more & more frequently. 
 
Here lies the heart of this mission: The individual stories waiting to unfold. We may never know all the names, faces, or circumstances, but we trust in the power of God's Word to resonate in each unique soul.
 
Consider Maria, a single mother struggling to make ends meet, who stumbles upon a free Bible at a local resource center. Discouraged and burdened by life's challenges, she opens the Bible and begins to read.  The words of comfort, hope, and unconditional love begin to penetrate her heart, replacing despair with a newfound sense of purpose.  She finds solace in the Psalms, strength in the Gospels, and connection to something greater than herself.  Through that bible, Maria finds Christ and embarks on a journey of faith, transforming not only her own life but also the lives of her children.

Picture
Picture
Or imagine David, a young man lost in addiction and searching for meaning in a world that seems to offer none.  He picks up a Bible from a rack at a truck stop, drawn to it by an inexplicable pull.  Skeptical at first, he begins to read stories of redemption, of forgiveness, and of second chances.  He sees parallels with his own life and starts to believe that maybe, just maybe, he too can be saved.  Through the scriptures, David discovers the power of repentance, the grace of God, and the path to recovery.  He finds freedom from his addiction and dedicates his life to helping others find liberation.
 
These are just glimpses of the potential stories that lie within each Bible we distribute.  These aren't just books; they are lifelines thrown to those drowning in despair.  They are beacons of light shining in the darkness.  They are seeds of faith planted in fertile ground.
 
We are not simply handing out Bibles; we are offering a relationship - a relationship with the living God.  We are sharing the good news of salvation, the promise of eternal life, and the unwavering love of Jesus Christ.
 
Your contribution is not just a donation; it is an investment in eternity.  It is a participation in God's divine plan.  It is a participation in transforming lives and building His Kingdom.

Picture
As we approach our 2025 deadline of $63,914.04, the urgency of our mission grows stronger.  So, currently, we have raised $51,000.00 toward our goal, this leaves a balance of roughly $13,000.00.  The people who do not know Jesus are waiting.  The seeds are ready to be sown.  Will you join us in this vital work?  Will you help us bridge the gap and meet the remaining needs?
 
Imagine the day when you stand before the Lord and hear Him say, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”  Imagine the joy of meeting the individuals whose lives were touched by the Bibles you helped distribute.  Imagine the eternal impact of your generosity.
 
Let us work together to sow seeds of faith and witness the harvest in the Kingdom of Heaven.  Let us strive to hear those words of gratitude one day, “Thank you for sending the Word that changed my life.”  Let us be faithful stewards of God's blessings and leave a legacy that will endure for eternity.
 
Click HERE to give directly and thank you from the bottom of our hearts.  Help us reach our goal and be a part of something truly eternal

Be Sure to Listen to the Short Audio Message Below
John Noel has exciting news of the upcoming order of the 2025 edition Good News Distribution Bible Printing

We are excited to announce that on January 24, 2025, we sent a deposit of $31,000 for our order of 60,000 Trucker's New Testament Bibles. Praise God! 

​The Bibles will be ready to ship March 11th. We are still needing to raise another $31,000 for the Bible's Final payment. We are very grateful for those who can help us achieve this goal. Any amount can make a big difference. We are so thankful for God’s provision through Friends, Family, and Ministry Partners.  This is due upon completion of the printing.

This will be our 6th printing.  We started in 2020 by printing 10,000 Bibles. In 2021 we printed another 10,000 Bibles. In 2022 we doubled our Bibles to 20,000. Then in 2023, we printed 27,000 Bibles, and in 2024 we printed and distributed 42,000 Bibles!

That totals over 109,000 Bibles! That's how many individuals/households from this Christian ministry that have potentially impacted.  Each of the past 5 years we have run out of Bibles through or distributions. This order of 60,000 Bibles will prayerfully get us through the year. The Bibles are being picked up faster than we can keep up with. PRAISE GOD!

We are always in need of prayer partners, help delivering these and well as contributions, if you feel led. 

​As most already know, we are a 501c non-profit organization, any tax deductible donations.
