March 2026 LSB Project Update: LSB LPUT Updates + More!

The LSB Tagger intelligently recognizes a wide range of reference formats, including:

• Full references (e.g., John 3:16)

• Abbreviated references (e.g., Col 3:16)

• Verse ranges (e.g., 2 Timothy 3:16-17)

• Non-sequential verses and ranges (e.g., John 1:1-4, 14)

Churches and ministries are already starting to integrate it into their websites. Some examples listed below are from the pages of Justin Peters Ministries, First Baptist Church of Lindale TX (Pastor Tom Buck) and Christ Fellowship Baptist Church in Mobile AL (Pastor Clint Archer)

The Masters Academy International Symposium & Shepherd’s Conference

2026 Shepherd’s Conference was a wonderful time of fellowship and remembrance of Pastor John MacArthur and his legacy. We enjoyed the time connecting with pastors from all over the world and hearing from them about their favorite memories of Pastor MacArthur.

Visit the LSB YouTube channel to hear over a dozen pastors share their favorite memory of John MacArthur.

2026 LSB Celebration Dinner

This year’s LSB Celebration Dinner was a success! We had the joy of fellowshipping with over 100 men who were interested in transitioning their congregations to the LSB. The Q&A panel with Clint Archer, Tom Buck, and Justin Peters helped pastors feel more comfortable and think more prayerfully about switching their churches to the LSB.

To help your church make the switch, we’ve created the LSB Church Program, designed to make the change easy for your congregation and free them from added administrative or financial burden.

Benefits of the LSB Church Program

1. No Added Responsibility for Your Church: We take care of payments, orders, and shipping so you and your leaders can focus on ministry.

2. Exclusive Sale Pricing & Free Shipping: Exclusive limited-time sale pricing on LSB editions, with free shipping applied through a church-specific promo code we provide.

3. 45-Day Church Launch Window: A set period during which your church can receive the special pricing. Members order online and have their Bibles shipped straight to their doors.

4. Easy to Use Launch Materials: Printable church flyer, QR code for announcements, and access to the LSB Church Program Media Kit.

Our goal is to come alongside you and make the switch to the LSB smooth for your church, providing the practical support needed so your congregation can be equipped.

If you are a Pastor or church administrator, please contact our team at min@316publishing.com to learn more!

We had the opportunity to join author Ray Comfort at his speaking event at Calvary Chapel Chino Hills in early February. Attendees were able to check out the witty and gospel-focused insights from his latest book, Idiotic Things People Did In The Bible.

This 32-chapter book highlights the follies of people throughout the Bible, along with the solid biblical truths and practical applications we can draw for our own lives—all delivered in the uniquely humorous style only Ray Comfort can provide

An Update On The LSB Large Print Ultra Thin

The LSB Large Print Ultrathin (LPUT) project is full steam ahead! At last week’s Shepherds’ Conference we were excited to share some very early sample layouts of the LPUT from the typesetting firm 2K Denmark.Though these were only preliminary glimpses, the responses we received from pastors and long-time users of the LPUT were deeply encouraging.

We are eager to see the Lord use this edition of the LSB to bless many faithful students of the Word. The LSB LPUT is currently slated to release August 2026, and preorders will begin by the end of next month. Stay tuned for more information coming soon, including the release of sample images of the layout!
