Reaching the World with Life-Changing Biblical Truth
Across the world—from pulpits to prison cells—believers are discovering the riches of biblical, experiential theology through the outreach ministry of Reformation Heritage Books.
Pastors, prisoners, and ordinary believers are gaining access to life-giving truth that was once far beyond their reach.
Through trusted publishing partners and new digital platforms, we work to strengthen the global church by making life-changing resources accessible in many languages and cultures so that believers may know God more deeply, understand Scripture more clearly, and pursue holiness more earnestly.
We pursue this mission through several key initiatives:
Global Publishing Partnerships
Translating and freely distributing Puritan Treasures for Today resources through trusted publishers serving pastors and churches.
ThePuritans.com
A growing digital platform designed as a free global library of curated Puritan resources for a worldwide audience.
Prison Outreach
Providing free books and digital resources to prison chaplains and incarcerated men and women through national distribution efforts.
Teaching & Media Resources
Free, video, audio, and digital tools that introduce new audiences to the treasure of Christ through Puritan-experiential content.
Demand for these resources is growing rapidly around the world. Ministry leaders in many countries are urgently asking for these works to be translated and produced in their own languages. In many places, believers have little access to this kind of biblical, experiential theology.
Our aim is simple: to bring the best resources to the most people with the least access.
Faithful partners across the world are ready to translate, print, and distribute these resources—but the demand now exceeds our current capacity.
With additional support, we can prioritize key languages, strengthen global partnerships, expand prison outreach efforts, and freely place these life-giving resources into the hands of thousands of pastors, church leaders, and believers who are eager for them.
This ministry is supported by the prayers and financial generosity of God’s people. Through this partnership, you help bring the treasure of Christ to believers around the world.
Together we can ensure that the rich theological heritage God preserved through the Puritans continues to strengthen the global church for generations to come.
