In obedience to His instruction, they
published the first BVOV, subtitled "A
Newsletter for the Power People," in
September 1973, and mailed it to
about 3,000 people. Within two years,
circulation had grown to 20,000.
Under the direction of their son-in-
law George Pearsons, BVOV became
a pacesetter in the growing sphere of
Christian magazines. Gloria says,
"ere's a ceiling on worldly publications
that we don't have. They can't reach
beyond where they are into the realm of the
anointing. Yet, the whole purpose of our
magazine is to present the Word of God on
paper through the anointing."
And the anointing
has truly made the
difference in BVOV.
Each month, members
of t he publ ish i n g
depar tment release
their faith that every
p er son who re ad s
t he magazine w i l l
e x per ience c ha nge
in their lives by the
a noi nte d Word it
contains! Articles by
the Copelands and
other ministers like
Jerr y Savelle, Jesse
Duplantis, Cref lo Dollar, Billye Brim,
Keith Moore and Bill Winston, have
indeed made a difference in hundreds of
thousands of lives through the years.
Since the f irst days of BVOV, our
Pa r tners and Fr iends have sent in
thousands of letters with their own
stories of faith. These have become
the foundation for the testimonies and
feature articles that now appear in every
monthly issue.
Today, we mail the BVOV magazine
to over 450,0 0 0 homes in countries
around the world. Knowing the good
news is being spread throughout the
world on the powerf ul voice of the
printed page is as exciting today as it
was 44 years ago when it all began. God
is working through its pages, month
after month, to bring people to a saving
knowledge of His love and to know that
Jesus is Lord!
And the most exciting part is the
