CCBT provides the Church with unrestricted freedom to use the highest standard of biblical resources and technology to create, check and publish their translations. CCBT overcomes the licensing obstacle by open-licensing everything that the global church needs (e.g., content, tools, and training.) It overcomes the language obstacle by providing open-licensed resources in all the Gateway Languages so that the church in every language can use the resources through a major language they understand. All content found on the CCBT website is open-licensed (CC-BY-SA).
