About Us
It really is not about us. It is about Jesus.
Our goal in working with each dealership is to place a John and Romans in the glove box of every car.
Countless people have found a Bible in a hotel drawer and later testified of a changed life. Glove Box Bible brings that same idea to vehicles by working with dealerships that allow Scripture to be placed in each glove box.
We are Christian businessmen trying to affect our workplace for Jesus Christ, and we are grateful for every dealership, church, and donor who helps move the work forward.
How to Be Saved
The good news that belongs in every glove box.
God loves you and created you to know Him.
Sin separates every person from God.
Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again.
Salvation is received by faith in Jesus Christ, not by personal merit.

Doctrine
Our doctrinal beliefs.
The Holy Scriptures
We believe that the entire Bible, all 66 books, is inspired by God, inerrant, preserved in the King James Bible, and relevant for today. Through the providence of God, the Word of God has been protected and preserved, and is the only infallible and authoritative rule of faith and practice.
2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Psalm 119:11, 89, 105God
We believe there is only one true, eternally existent God. He exists in three co-equal persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The triune God is the Creator and Sustainer of all things, and is worthy of worship and obedience.
Deuteronomy 6:4-5; Genesis 1:31; Luke 3:21-22; Matthew 28:18-20; Revelation 4:11Jesus Christ
We believe that Jesus Christ is God. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, shed His blood on the cross to pay the debt for our sins, was buried, bodily resurrected, ascended to the right hand of the Father, and will return literally, visibly, and personally in glory and power.
John 1:1-3,14; Matthew 1:18-25; Philippians 2:5-9; Colossians 1:15; 1 Corinthians 15:1-8; Acts 1:11Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit is God, co-equal and co-existent with the Father and the Son. He is the chief convictor of sin and the chief agent of regeneration and sanctification. The Holy Spirit lives within every believer and empowers every believer to live a godly, victorious Christian life.
John 14:16-19; John 16:7-15; 1 Corinthians 6:19-20; Romans 8:9,11; Titus 3:5Salvation
We believe salvation is a free gift of God's grace apart from human works, based solely upon Christ's atoning death, received only through faith in the person and finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross and His resurrection from death.
Ephesians 2:8-10; 2 Corinthians 5:21The Church
We believe the church is the body of Christ and family of God. It is made up of saved and baptized believers who regularly join together for worship, fellowship, and ministry.
Matthew 16:18; 1 Corinthians 12:12-14; Hebrews 10:25Evangelism
We believe that it is the responsibility and privilege of every Christian to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ and to seek to teach all nations. We need to be about the work of planting the good seed daily.
Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8Contact
