Good News!
🥇Better than Olympic Gold!
February 14, 2026
At the Games, one meter can change everything, but in life... you are only one meter away from gold: from the Good News!
That's what our Italian colleague Andrea tells everyone he meets during the Winter Olympics in his country. Especially for the Games, he has made 40,000 business cards to hand out. Each card links to a landing page.
Andrea: “Here you will find ideas and opportunities to turn missed meters into a new opportunity.”
🇩🇪 Jesus.net and YouVersion collaborate for greater impact
February 6, 2026
We have been collaborating with YouVersion for over ten years and already have dozens of partner organizations writing reading plans for the Bible app. Based on this experience, we have been asked to set up a German YouVersion team.
Based in Frankfurt am Main, this local team will search for German devotional writers, develop daily “Verse of the Day” videos, and build a network of churches to which people can be referred for further growth in their faith. The team will focus on Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
In this way, we are contributing to the global impact of the YouVersion Bible App, which now reaches more than 1 billion users.
❤️ 35,000 hearts touched in 1 day!
January 23, 2026
For anyone who follows Déborah Rosenkranz, it will come as no surprise that her love language is sharing words of affirmation: expressing love through sincere appreciation and encouraging words.
All the qualities of our beloved author of the English and German versions of “A Miracle Every Day” came together beautifully in a recent “Verse of the Day” video in the YouVersion Bible app.
Déborah touched many hearts with her explanation of Luke 12:40. So many, in fact, that more than 35,000 people started following Jesus.net on YouVersion.
📖 6 million Jesus.net reading plans on YouVersion!
January 8, 2026
Did you know that Jesus.net is now the second largest provider of Bible reading plans on YouVersion? Last year, that impact was marked by two important milestones: 6 million plans were completed worldwide through Jesus.net, and 1 million plans were completed by our Spanish branch alone.
This is how we are working together with YouVersion to bring people one step closer to Jesus every day.
👁️ Asian church leaders with an eye for online
December 10, 2025
Recently, our directors Reinout van Heiningen and Jan Willem Bosman were in Malaysia for the Asian Chosen Summit, where they met with Catholic and Protestant leaders to explore opportunities for The Chosen throughout Asia.
It is inspiring to see how this series and its impact continue to spread around the world. These conversations create meaningful opportunities for countries where we have local teams, such as Myanmar, Thailand, and Indonesia. It opens the door to future impact and collaboration between the church and online.
