About Berean Ministry

Berean Ministry brings the King James and Darby Bibles together with a library of more than 1,500 Brethren ministry books and the 1962 Believers Hymn Book — all searchable in one place, with real sources you can check for yourself.

How to use it

Search — one box does it all. Type a phrase or a Bible reference like John 3:16 for an instant search across the Bible, ministry, and hymns — or ask a question in plain words and get a short, summarized answer grounded first in Scripture (JND), then in how the ministry expounds it, with every point linked to its source. Auto picks the right mode for you, or choose Search · Find sources · Summarize yourself.

Read — browse the library and read any book in a clean, e-reader-style view. Scripture references are linked throughout — click one to open it alongside what you're reading.

Why this tool exists

I've wanted a faster way to cross-reference both the older ministry and the current living ministry with the Bible — in a simple, quick, easy-to-read summary. We've worked hard to proof the work on these pages and to remove mistakes introduced when converting old printed text into a modern digital format. The books here have been scrubbed for OCR errors and had cross-reference links to Scripture added throughout.

What's in the library

Beyond the older ministry books, we've added the complete A Word in its Season and Notes of Ministry — as well as all the volumes Andrew Burr has compiled from old ministry that was never published before.
