American Friends of Tyndale House Cambridge American Friends of Tyndale House Cambridge is a 501(c)(3) organization giving Americans the opportun Dr. J.I. I loved it.

Established in 1944, Tyndale House Cambridge (UK) is a Christian community dedicated to researching the primary evidence relevant to the study of the Bible. Set amidst the University of Cambridge, it holds one of the world’s finest libraries for biblical research with specialist material on the language, culture, history, and meaning of the Bible. Tyndale House has accommodations for visiting church leaders, scholars, and postgraduates in an ideal setting for their own study. Over fifty scholars, pastors, teachers, and missionaries from all over the world study here on a daily basis and then return to their home countries to continue their ministry work in preaching, teaching, training other pastors, scholars, and students, and Bible translation. The impact of Tyndale House on the worldwide Church continues to expand with our current scholarship programs that are bringing in scholars from Africa, Cuba, China, and Eastern Europe. In addition, Tyndale House has developed the most powerful, freely available, digital Biblical research tools in the world with the Scripture Tools for Every Person (STEP) Program. These resources are available in all parts of the majority world through distribution via our ministry partners, especially in places without reliable power and internet services. "A fully equipped library and study center, Tyndale House, Cambridge is dedicated to the faithful interpretation of Holy Scripture at the highest level and so merits prayerful support from Christians everywhere." Packer, Professor of Theology, Regent College

“Tyndale House is a jewel in the crown of Cambridge, boasting the most comprehensive biblical research library in the country. So, its planned expansion is indispensable if it is to be made available to yet more graduate researchers.”
Rev. Dr. John Stott (1921-2011)

“My five-month stay at Tyndale House in 2006 was an extraordinarily productive time. The combination of worship, fellowship over tea and disciplined seclusion surrounded by thousands of relevant books is unlike anything else I have experienced.”
Dr. John Piper, founder and teacher of desiringGod.org and chancellor of Bethlehem College & Seminary

What happens when scholars don’t just study together—but live and share life together?

João Paulo Thomaz de Aquino shares his gratitude for the fellowship he experiences at Orchard End with five fellow Brazilians. During the day, they’re immersed in their individual research and writing projects. But each morning begins with Scripture and a devotional time while evenings are filled with shared meals, conversation about the day, prayer and encouragement.

Tyndale House is a community where biblical scholarship is strengthened through fellowship and a shared commitment to God’s Word.

Your generosity helps the International Scholars Program thrive—equipping scholars from around the world to serve the global Church with excellence and humility. If you wish to support the work of Tyndale House, please follow our website link in the bio to our donate page. Thank you!

Dr. Caleb Howard, Research Fellow in Old Testament and Ancient Near East at Tyndale House, shares why he reads both broadly and deeply through Scripture. God has given us all of His Word, and every book helps us better understand the whole. As we read Scripture in its fullness, we grow in our knowledge of God and His purposes.
Read broadly. Read deeply. Think about God’s Word.

Dr. Dauda Gava, Professor of New Testament and President of Kulp Theological Seminary visits Tyndale House as an International Scholar to begin writing a commentary on Philippians.

For him, this work is deeply personal. Serving in northern Nigeria, where many believers have experienced persecution, he is exploring Philippians’ message of joy in suffering from an African perspective.

Dr. Gava’s research serves both the academics and the global Church. Please pray for Dauda as he writes, and for believers in northern Nigeria who continue to stand firm in their faith.

Dr. Dirk Jongkind, Academic Vice Principal at Tyndale House has encouragement when Bible reading feels intimidating — God wants to be known—and He has revealed Himself through Scripture. Don’t worry about understanding everything or applying every passage right away. Simply start reading. If it’s difficult, read with someone else. As you get to know the Bible, you’ll discover that while some parts are challenging, many are wonderfully clear and will speak to you.
Keep reading. Keep seeking. The rest will follow.
