Our mission is to encourage and challenge people to seek intimacy with God every day. Videos featured in YouVersion will focus closely on the Scripture and avoid distracting promotional material or advertising.

We believe a daily rhythm of seeking God has the power to transform lives. Videos in the app provide a gateway between the Bible and our modern life. These connections lead to next steps of faith and real life transformation.

Excellence honors God and inspires people. In video, excellence depicts the truth of God’s Word in a fresh, exciting way. Featured videos will lead the viewer to the truth of the Bible instead of to distracting audio or visual issues. Attention to detail in filming, editing, and audio are crucial.

The YouVersion community spans every country on Earth. Each person has a unique blend of cultural, socioeconomic, geographic, and linguistic perspectives. Our video partners keep this diverse audience in mind and look for innovative ways to serve every nation, tribe, and language.

The Bible is full of treasures, providing a glimpse into the creativity and majesty of God. Videos hosted on YouVersion take the same approach, bringing fresh awe and wonder to the words of scripture and serving as a doorway to a spiritually-rich understanding of the Word of God.

We recognize that our community comes from a broad array of theological and denominational backgrounds. With this is mind, we pursue content that seeks to unify the body of believers through our similarities, instead of focusing on our differences.
