1973 A Historic Moment:
Believer’s Voice of Victory
A Newsletter for the Power People!
When the Lord instructed Kenneth and Gloria Copeland to publish the Believer’s Voice of Victory magazine, He said to them: This is your seed. Give it to everyone who ever responds to your ministry, and don’t ever allow anyone to pay for a subscription to it.
In obedience to His instruction, they published the first "BVOV," subtitled “A Newsletter for the Power People,” in September 1973, and mailed it to about 3,000 people. Within two years, circulation had grown to 20,000.
Under the direction of their son-in-law George Pearsons, "BVOV" became a pacesetter in the growing sphere of Christian magazines. Gloria says, “There’s a ceiling on worldly publications that we don’t have. They can’t reach beyond where they are into the realm of the anointing. Yet, the whole purpose of our magazine is to present the Word of God on paper through the anointing.”
And the anointing has truly made the difference in "BVOV." Each month, members of the publishing department release their faith that every person who reads the magazine will experience change in their lives by the anointed Word it contains! Articles by the Copelands and other ministers like Jerry Savelle, Jesse Duplantis, Creflo Dollar, Billye Brim, Keith Moore and Bill Winston, have indeed made a difference in hundreds of thousands of lives through the years.
Since the first days of "BVOV," our Partners and Friends have sent in thousands of letters with their own stories of faith. These have become the foundation for the testimonies and feature articles that now appear in every monthly issue.
Today, we mail the "BVOV" magazine to over 450,000 homes in countries around the world. Knowing the good news is being spread throughout the world on the powerful voice of the printed page is as exciting today as it was 44 years ago when it all began. God is working through its pages, month after month, to bring people to a saving knowledge of His love and to know that Jesus is Lord!
