See the Impact of Scripture in Real Time with Mappy

Feb 17, 2025

As a church leader, you pour your heart into helping people engage with God’s Word. But sometimes, it’s easy to wonder — Is it making a difference?

We’d like to introduce you to Mappy. It’s a map that shows people all over the world using the Bible App to read the Bible. You can explore it anytime at maps.youversion.com.

Here are a few ways Mappy can serve and encourage you as you lead your church:

1. See the Global Reach of God’s Word

Every time someone opens a Bible Plan, Mappy displays it in real time. It’s a powerful reminder that God’s Word is alive and reaching people in every corner of the world — no matter their language, location, or background.

2. Encourage Your Church with a Bigger Perspective

It’s easy to feel isolated in ministry, but Mappy provides a visual reminder that your church is part of something much bigger. When you share Mappy with your congregation, it can help them see how they’re part of a worldwide movement of people seeking God through Scripture.

3. Inspire Your Team and Volunteers

For those who serve in ministry, Mappy can be a refreshing source of encouragement. Whether it’s your small group leaders, tech team, or children’s ministry volunteers, showing them real-time Bible engagement can remind them why their work matters.

4. Pray for the Nations

As you see different locations light up on Mappy, take a moment to pray for the people represented. Some may be encountering the Bible for the first time, while others might be finding strength in God’s Word during a difficult moment.

Mappy is more than a map — it’s a living picture of how God’s Word is changing lives across the globe. We hope it encourages you and equips you as you lead your church into deeper engagement with Scripture.
