Founded in 1993 – when the internet was still in its infancy – Bible Gateway has since received more than 14 billion visits and grown to offer translations of scripture in more than 70 languages.
Content manager, Jonathan Petersen told Premier: “We’re thrilled with God’s blessing on Bible Gateway.
“You never know where God is going to take you.
“We’re just very happy with how people are interacting with us – and how they are able to use Bible Gateway for their own benefit, Bible reading and study.”
More than 200 versions of the Bible are now available on Bible Gateway, which also offers audio services featuring readers including David Suchet.
The service was originally used as internal Bible research computer tool for theology students at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Explaining how people use the free website in different ways, Jonathan Petersen said: “People will come and quickly look for a Bible verse. When they find, then they leave.
“Other people come to Bible Gateway on a regular basis. They are wanting to read different Bible translations side-by-side, comparing them.”
