FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE    

WATERMEN STOKED BY NEW SURFER'S BIBLE

ST. AUGUSTINE BEACH, FL -- While you wont find any exhortations to love thy bro as thyself" or to be amped in the Lord," the introduction to the new Surfers Bible does draw parallels between surfing and religion, and includes a parable of the four grommets" (young surfers). Even its high-gloss cover is water-resistant.

Distributed by the American Bible Society and sponsored by Christian Surfers US, the Surfers Bible contains the New Testament scriptures as well as short biographies of Christian surfers, surfboard shapers and others in the surfing culture including 2001 world champion CJ Hobgood, female pro surfer Jen Belshaw, and longboard legend Skip Frye. The current edition is written in contemporary English and a universal Spanish version is in the works.

The surf pics and testimonies from various surfers are powerful", says 2001 surfing world champion CJ Hobgood. And the message is right on."

Originally published by The Bible Society in Australia last year, more than 35,000 copies of the Surfers Bible have already been printed Down Under. Considering the U.S. surfing population is approximately the same size as Australias, Christian Surfers believes the bible will be very popular in the United States with surfers and shubees (non-surfers who like the surf culture) alike.

The Surfers Bible is currently available by calling 1-800-32-BIBLE or online at www.bibles.com. Soon they may be available at your local surf shop. In the coming weeks, Christian Surfers United States will be mailing more than 2,500 free Surfers Bibles to shop owners for their review and personal use.
