Episcopal Bible

We offer the American Standard Version, the translation of the Bible authorized by the Episcopal Church.

Episcopalians trace their ancestry from the Church of England. The Church of England began in the 16th century when The English Church separated itself from the Roman Catholic Church.
The Episcopal Church in America began after the Revolutionary War. Today, the Episcopal Church belongs to the Anglican Communion.

The King James Bible was the authorized Episcopalian Bible. In contemporary times, the Episcopal Church approved other translations such as the 1901 American Revision, commonly known as the American Standard Version.
