American Bible Society to Sponsor 2026 Cause of the Year: Bible Engagement

The American Bible Society has signed on to be the corporate sponsor of EPA’s 2026 Cause of the Year: Bible Engagement.

To encourage publications to tackle certain important subjects, EPA’s annual contest features a Cause of the Year. The Board of Directors chooses a specific topic and presents awards for the best material published on that subject during that year.

During 2026, publications are asked to address the subject of Bible Engagement. The parameters are purposefully very broad, and any article that touches on this theme will be eligible for the 2027 contest, along with a related photo or illustration.

The American Bible Society exists to “help all people experience the life-changing message of the Bible” by making Scripture “available to every person in a language and format each can understand and afford,” working through global partnerships to share God’s Word and break down barriers like poverty or lack of access, and to encourage deeper engagement through study, prayer, and outreach so that people around the world can hear the Gospel, grow in their faith, and have their lives transformed.

The ABS website has a wealth of information and resources for stories. Learn more at americanbible.org.

Articles and illustrations addressing this theme will be eligible for the contest in 2027.
