SPCK Partners with Eden Interactive for New Bible App Development

We’re pleased to announce an exciting new partnership between SPCK and Eden Interactive to bring a custom-built Bible app to Catholics in the UK. This collaboration will see the development of a mobile app featuring the English Standard Version: Catholic Edition (ESV-CE), complete with accompanying audio of the full Bible. Scheduled for release in November 2024, the app will arrive just in time for the introduction of the new lectionary using the ESV-CE in England, Wales, and Scotland at the start of Advent.

As a leader in faith-based technology, Eden Interactive is thrilled to be working on such a significant project. With 25 years of experience building digital solutions for the Church, including websites, apps, and ecommerce platforms, Eden Interactive has become a trusted partner in equipping Christian communities with innovative resources. In addition to running eden.co.uk, the largest dedicated Christian eCommerce site, Eden Interactive recently launched the global digital content platform Christian360, further expanding our commitment to resourcing the Church through technology.

Speaking about the partnership, Sam Richardson, CEO of SPCK, shared his excitement, “This is a wonderful opportunity to serve the Catholic faithful in Great Britain, giving them access to the Catholic Church’s official translation. We have a long and fruitful relationship with Eden, and we are delighted to be able to use their experience as a technology provider to the Church on this project.”

Stay tuned for updates as we approach the November launch of this exciting new Bible app!
