The Gospel for
every corner of life

At Poiema, we craft excellent resources that bring Spanish speakers face-to-face with the riches of the Gospel. We are dedicated to equipping Christians and churches with strong theology for the glory of God and the building up of His Church.

Every human’s greatest need is to know the God whose grace transforms every corner of life. Yet the majority of the over 550 million Spanish-speakers across the world have been shown only a distorted version of Him.

The Spanish-speaking world has a strong Catholic heritage. In the 1970s, over 90% of the population of Spain and Latin America was Catholic, and most Spanishs-peaking adults today grew up in Catholic homes. The 16th-century Reformation heritage that produced many foundational theological works for the church at large never took hold in these majority-Catholic countries.

Over the last fifty years, Protestantism has increased, especially in Latin America: Today, 19% of Latin Americans say they are Protestants. But of these, about two out of three identify with a kind of evangelicalism that encourages followers to minimize the treasure of knowing Christ in favor of pursuing and treasuring health and wealth in this world.

Spanish-speakers need to be drawn to the surpassing value of knowing Christ, and Spanish-speaking pastors and church members need to be equipped with biblically-sound and compelling resources for the health and maturity of their churches.

How is the Lord working through Poiema to meet this need?

For over a decade, Poiema has published books and resources that are beautiful and accessible, drawing readers in and bringing them face-to-face, often for the first time, with the richness of the Gospel. In 2023:

We distributed over 150,000 books in over 20 countries.

Our book catalog increased to include 230 titles. Some of our bestsellers were Spanish translations of Paul Tripp’s New Morning Mercies and Mark Dever’s What Is a Healthy Church?

Our blog, Volvamos al Evangelio (Let’s Return to the Gospel) shares articles from Spanish-speaking pastors and translated articles by John Piper, Tim Challies, Alistair Begg, and others. In 2023, 720,000 readers interacted with articles and the social media pages had 6 million views.

The BITE Project is a multi-media platform that teaches bite-sized pieces of theology and church history, contextualized for the Spanish-speaking world. In 2023, 850,000 people visited the BITE Project website and the BITE Project social media had 25 million views.

Poiema trains and equips the Spanish-speaking church through conferences, discounted resources, and pastoral training.
