Less than a year after its launch, the Nueva Version Internacional (NVI) – a Spanish-language Bible produced by the International Bible Society (IBS) – has topped 1 million mark in sales.
“The NVI activity this first year has soared beyond our greatest expectations,” said Dean Merrill, vice president for IBS-U.S. Publishing, which owns the right to NVI. “We had no idea that so many pastors, church members and evangelistic organizations would embrace it so readily, both in the U.S. and throughout Latin America.”
Spanish follows Chinese and English as the world’s most-spoken language. The United States has the fifth-largest Spanish-speaking population in the world, with nearly 30 million Hispanics.
