Mission Statement
Unlocking the Bible is a para-church organization that exists to put the gospel in people's grasp around the globe through all forms of modern media (radio, publishing, social/web as well as events). In 2017 alone, UTB reached over 5 million people with a redemptive message of hope. Each fall, we host a fundraiser whereby all proceeds are re-invested back into reaching more people with the gospel message, through modern media.
