Compassion International Joins with YouVersion to Celebrate Global Bible Month

Collaboration invites deeper engagement with Scripture

Colorado Springs, Colorado--(Newsfile Corp. - November 10, 2025) - Compassion International, a leading child development organization, is joining with partner YouVersion to celebrate what God is doing around the world, through the enduring power and necessity of scripture by offering a new 30-day prayer plan in conjunction with Global Bible Month this November.

At the heart of Global Bible Month is a 30-Day Bible Challenge that invites people from all walks of life to engage with Scripture consistently for a month. Research shows that reading the Bible four or more days each week changes lives. Whether through the YouVersion app, another digital platform, or a favorite print edition, the goal is simply to make time each day to connect with God's Word and experience firsthand the transformative power of Scripture.

More than 2.2 million people have already committed to taking the challenge.

Compassion's 30-Day prayer plan is called "A Call to Care for the World's Most Vulnerable." It focuses on key issues children and communities in poverty face and is a global call to remember that God loves and fights on behalf of those in need.

Those who pray will be part of a movement that is releasing blessing toward these kids. If 10,000 people pray for five minutes a day toward these issues, that's close to three years' worth of prayer to address poverty.

YouVersion is known for creating biblically centered, culturally relevant experiences that encourage and challenge people to seek God throughout each day.

According to Andrew Kooman, Compassion Manager of Brand Partnerships and Campaigns, Compassion's YouVersion 30-Day prayer plan is a unique opportunity for Christians around the world to join together in focused prayer for children in poverty.

"We know that God answers prayer, and we're excited for what He will do as people all across the world use Compassion's 30-Day Plan to unite in prayer for children in extreme poverty," Kooman said. "We're truly appreciative for our partnership with YouVersion and the ability to create content that encourages people to make a real difference in the lives of those who need it most."

YouVersion values the collaboration with Compassion and the shared belief to see people's lives changed through engagement with Scripture.

"We love working alongside partners like Compassion who share our desire to see people's lives transformed by the power of daily engagement with Scripture, "said Bobbly Gruenewald, Founder and CEO of YouVersion. "During the month of November, we simply want to invite people to read the Bible for 30 days and see what happens. So many people are searching for what's real and true, and we know the Bible stands alone as the answer."
