ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Dec. 6, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Bible.is gives away their audio-based Bible apps for free all year long, so they figured, "Why not give something else away for free this Christmas?" That something else is one of the hottest gifts going this year – the iPad from Apple.

Bible.is, through their Share the Word, Get the iPad Giveaway, will present one lucky entrant a free iPad. Entries will be accepted through December 13 with the winner being announced on December 15. Contestants are able to enter through the Bible.is website, or Facebook fan page.

The incredibly popular iPad is a perfect complement to promote the increasingly popular apps offered by Faith Comes By Hearing. In just four months, nearly 1 million people have downloaded the free Bible.is app, which allows them to both read and listen to Scripture on their smartphone and other mobile devices like the iPad.

"We are committed to providing free access to the Bible in audio so every nation, tribe, language and people can engage in God's Word," says Troy Carl, the national director of Faith Comes By Hearing – the parent ministry that powers Bible.is and their ever expanding Digital Bible Project.

"Christmas is when we as Christians celebrate the gift of a Savior," continues Carl. "So if we can help bring His message to even one person through a small gift of our own, it is well worth it."
