FireBible
The Full Life Study Bible began in the 1980s as the vision of missionary Donald Stamps, who longed to create a Study Bible written from a Pentecostal perspective. Even while battling cancer, he devoted his life to completing this work so believers everywhere could grow in God’s Word.
Now known as the FireBible, this unique resource helps Christians live fully inspired lives through the power of the Holy Spirit. With verse-by-verse notes, articles, and commentary it offers clear insight and practical application for every believer.
Through Assemblies of God World Missions and Life Publishers, the FireBible has been translated into more than 65 languages, with many more in progress. Your giving helps make new translations possible so pastors and believers around the world can experience the truth and power of God’s Word.
