Using Digital Technology to Reach the World
Since 1951, FBH International has been responding to the Great Commission by sharing the gospel through whatever means have been available to us. Historically it was by radio and printed material, and today, God has opened many new channels through online digital media platforms. See below for some of the ways we are sharing the good news of Jesus Christ.

YouTube Gospel Video Campaign
Using 15, 30 and 60 second video gospel messages, FBH shares the gospel with millions using the advertising feature on YouTube. When users of the platform select a video to watch, they first see a sponsored message play. Our goal, is to present the good news in a simple, straightforward manner. Instead of an offer for a product or service, the viewer will hear the greatest offer ever made to mankind; salvation through faith in Jesus Christ!
HopeStreamRadio
One of the main tools of FBH International is our HopeStreamRadio website. This is where people can find our extensive library of Bible studies, devotionals, gospel messages, and other interesting programs, in audio and written formats. New content is being added regularly. Since its launch in 2015, HopeStreamRadio has been accessed from over 80 countries, and today averages approximately 3,000 visitors each week.
BIBLE DISTRIBUTION CAMPAIGNS
Another method FBH partners with the local church, is to help set up free Bible distribution campaigns. How it works is we will arrange for a 15 or 30 second video to run as an advertisement in your city, or local community. Those ads will direct the viewer to a page on your church’s website, where they can fill out a form, requesting their free Bible. A volunteer from the church then reaches out to them, and they can set up a time to meet and deliver the Bible, and answer any questions they may have.
Evangelism Partnership
Transform your evangelism by partnering with FBH International. Using the proven method of marketing through YouTube advertising, we work with local churches to promote their specific outreach efforts. Whether it be a community barbecue, DVBS program, or another unique event, we will create a video notice, and run that in the area around the chapel building, or even to the full city. Please allow us to work with you on your next event.

FBH Ukraine
Through our partners at FEBC, Alex and Nadia Pastushak take the programs created by FBH from our HopeStreamRadio site, and adapt them for use among the people of Ukraine. Broadcasting from Chernivtsi, The Family Bible Hour program is available through traditional FM radio, as well as being hosted online by Radio M Ukraine. As of late 2024, Andrey Kopylov produces a second FBH program from Kiev.
The Arab World
FBH International partners with ArabWorldMedia to reach out in Arabic to the Middle East and North Africa. For cultural considerations, our partners produce their content in house, while FBH sponsors three Arabic responders, Adel, Mira, and Nada. They work on the front lines of the Arabic ministry, fielding the calls and answering the questions of those seeking to know more about Jesus, often from countries hostile to the gospel.
FBH RUSSIA
Igor Popov in Moscow, and Vlad Yurtov in St. Petersburg are responsible for the FBH Program in Russia. Arranged through our partners at FEBC, the Russian program is available online through Radio Teos. Igor and Vlad adapt our FBH programs available from HopeStreamRadio to share the gospel and the teachings of God’s Word to the people of Russia. In 2024, The Russian FBH program was accessed 11-million times.
