The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is committed to providing free or economical access to scriptures as part of the mandate to fill the earth with the knowledge of the Lord (Habakkuk 2:14).

In the general marketplace, the cost of Bibles is rising.

In contrast, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints isn’t about to hike its prices. In fact, pocket-sized scriptures are still 50% off. You can also get scriptures free online at scriptures.lds.org and free in the Gospel Library mobile app. Also, very economical print editions are available at store.lds.org (Bible for $8.85; triple for $5).

Here’s a quick run-down on all the ways the Church provides the scriptures:

Print

Scriptures are available in various printed formats, including hardcover, softcover, and handy pocket-sized editions (which are currently 50% off).

Pictures

Children

Colorfully illustrated scripture stories are available online at scripturestories.lds.org. Each of the four books has downloadable text, audio, and video. They are also available as printed books and on a DVD set.

The weekly Scripture Stories radio series (New Testament, D&C/Church History, Book of Mormon) is designed to inspire children to come to know and love stories from the scriptures. Each episode features children sharing their insights and favorite experiences from the scriptures, along with music and readings of the best stories from the scriptures. New episodes are completed regularly, so check back often to see them.
