SELBL is a volunteer-based, non-profit organization.
The making of this website is totally a volunteer project – from writing the idioms, to editing and translating, to making the lesson plans. It is the volunteers that make SELBL happen!
We need volunteers such as:
 | Contributors who love to share their poems, songs or other original Christian works |
 | Translators to translate idioms and names into different language versions |
 | Editors to review the translation and write-ups |
 | Teachers to contribute lesson plans that help people learn English through the Bible |
It is our vision this website can become truly global, so that people coming from non-English speaking countries can learn idioms quickly and effectively by understanding their origins written in their mother tongue.
Whoever, whichever country you are from, YOU can make this happen!
SELBL organizes English camps and English corners from time to time to help people learn English more effectively by reading the source of inspiration of great writers – the Bible.
Whichever part of the globe you are, if you are to set up an English corner in your school or workplace, you are more than welcome to contact us for advice. We hope that our vision is reached globally, while touching the hearts locally.
SELBL sends volunteers to teach English in places where English is a foreign language. In 2009, we lead a team of volunteers to teach English in China.
Since 2014, we have organized English camps in different countries including Turkey, Israel, Jordan etc. Please click here for more details. Please click here for more details. Promotion video available here:
