BIBLOS WAS FORMED IN 2007 TO ENCOURAGE A DEEPER INTEREST IN AND APPRECIATION FOR BIBLICAL STUDIES AND TO INSTIGATE ADVANCED RESEARCH AND SHARE INSIGHTS BEYOND THE CLASSROOM. BIBLOS ENCOURAGES THE STUDY OF THE BIBLE FROM A CHRISTIAN SCIENCE POINT OF VIEW. THE ORGANIZATION MAINTAINS A DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM TO ATTRACT PUBLIC SUPPORT, HOWEVER, THE GENERAL PUBLIC POOL OF PERSONS INSPIRED TO SUPPORT THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE POINT OF VIEW IS MUCH SMALLER THAN THAT OF "TRADITIONAL" BIBLICAL STUDY ORGANIZATIONS AND PROGRAMS. THE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM IN PLACE AT BIBLOS FOUNDATION SEEKS OUT AND APPLIES FOR GRANT FUNDING FROM LARGER ORGANIZATIONS THAT SUPPORT CHRISTIAN SCIENCE STUDIES. BIBLOS MAINTAINS A WEBSITE, ENCOURAGES ONLINE DONATIONS AND MEMBERSHIP. AS AN EDUCATIONAL ORGANIZATION, BIBLOS REGULARLY UPDATES THEIR ONLINE LIBRARY OF RESOURCES TO BRING NEW MATERIALS AND ONLINE AUDIO SESSIONS TO SUBSCRIBERS. BIBLOS HAS A WIDE VARIETY OF ONLINE SUBSCRIBERS AND IS CONTINUOUSLY LOOKING FOR INNOVATIVE WAYS TO INCREASE AND EXPAND ENGAGEMENT WITH CURRENT AND NEW SUBSCRIBERS INCLUDING MEMBERSHIP OPTIONS THAT APPEAL TO ALL AGES. MEMBERSHIP FEES ARE LOW TO ENCOURAGE INTEREST IN LEARNING MORE ABOUT CHRISTIAN SCIENCE. THESE SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE ON A REGULAR AND CONTINUOUS BASIS TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN ADVANCING THEIR EDUCATION AND KNOWLEDGE. THE STAFF AND GOVERNING BODY OF BIBLOS FOUNDATION HAVE SOUGHT TO FURTHER THEIR OWN HIGHER EDUCATION IN THE FIELD OF CHRISTIAN SCIENCE AND ARE THOROUGHLY COMMITTED TO PROVIDING A VENUE THROUGH THE FOUNDATION TO ENRICH THE LIVES OF OTHERS SEEKING SIMILAR EDUCATION, OR SIMPLY SEEKING ANSWERS. BIBLOS IS ORGANIZED AND OPERATING IN A MANNER SO AS TO ATTRACT NEW AND ADDITIONAL PUBLIC SUPPORT ON A REGULAR AND CONTINUOUS BASIS. AS A RESULT OF PRIOR EFFORTS TO SECURE FUNDING FOR CONTINUED PROGRAM OPERATIONS, BIBLOS FOUNDATION APPEALED TO TWO LARGE PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS WHICH HAVE GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED THE ORGANIZATION. IF BIBLOS FOUNDATION WERE ABLE TO EXCLUDE FUNDING FROM THESE FOUNDATIONS FROM THE PUBLIC SUPPORT TEST CALCULATION, BIBLOS WOULD EASILY MEET THE 33 1/3% PUBLIC SUPPORT TEST.
