Translating Spritual Development
We exist so that every Christian in the Middle East has access to training resources in their native languages.

The mission of the JUDE PROJECT is to translate and publish biblical training resources for Christians in the Middle East. We believe that making biblical training resources freely available is the best way to facilitate individual spiritual growth, build and support strong Gospel centered churches, and—ultimately—to advance the Gospel in the Middle East. We want every Christian to have access to sound theological resource in their own language. That is why we are working to build a complete digital library for Christians in the Middle East.

Our team is made up of dedicated individuals who are passionate about making a difference in the world. From our volunteers to our board members, everyone at Jude Project is committed to our mission and the children we serve.

The Jude Project is a non‑profit organization operating exclusively for religious and charitable purposes within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The purpose of The Jude Project is to translate seminary‑level Christian theological course books from English into multiple target languages; to create derivative educational resources—such as workbooks and instructional videos—based on those translated works; and to provide training and support, including seminars and editorial guidance, to develop new translators.
Translating spiritual development resources requires translators who are both skilled linguists and trained theologians. That’s why we invest in training and developing new translators—multiplying our impact for years to come.
We distribute our translations free of charge, in both digital and hard‑copy formats. This ensures that Christians can access, read, and afford these essential resources. We also partner with a variety of ministry organizations to support both content development and distribution, maximizing the reach and impact of our work.
We are working to create a 500‑book library of essential biblical training resources for five languages in the Middle East. This library includes both seminary‑level texts and practical theology books, ensuring that pastors and laypeople alike can benefit from our work.
We believe that freely providing biblical training resources is the most effective way to foster individual spiritual growth, strengthen and support gospel‑centered churches, and ultimately advance the Gospel throughout the Middle East.
We depend on the generous, tax‑deductible contributions of individuals, churches, foundations, and businesses to carry out our translation work.
The Jude Project is uniquely committed to ending the theological famine facing Christians in the Middle East by building a comprehensive digital Christian library. To accomplish this, we have partnered with multiple agencies to translate and distribute a digital pastor’s library of 250 foundational theological works—resources designed to strengthen and equip the spiritual leadership of the region.
Alongside this effort, we are translating an additional 250 books focused on spiritual growth, providing believers at every stage of maturity with tools to deepen their faith and disciple or counsel others.
Together, these 500 books will be translated into five strategically chosen languages—selected because the church among these people groups is experiencing rapid growth yet remains significantly under-resourced.
The Apostle Jude brought the Gospel to the Middle East nearly 2,000 years ago. Today, we serve the Christian communities that carry on his legacy.
Confessing Jesus Christ as the only Savior and sovereign Lord over all of life, we affirm the Bible in its entirety as the written Word of God, without error in all its parts. We wholeheartedly embrace its teaching as expressed in the Heidelberg Catechism, the Belgic Confession, the Canons of Dort, the Westminster Confession of Faith, and the Westminster Larger and Shorter Catechisms.
To accomplish our translation goals, we have built a network of highly qualified linguists who also possess the theological training required to handle complex doctrinal works. This combination of skills is rare, and it makes our team uniquely equipped for the task.
All of our translators are native speakers of the target language, and every translation undergoes professional editing and rigorous review to ensure accuracy and clarity. The translation infrastructure we have developed is a powerful asset for the advancement of the Gospel.
In addition, we distribute these resources digitally through a wide range of partnerships to maximize their reach. Digital distribution is not only more cost‑effective—it also provides a safer way for users to access these materials in sensitive regions.
