Many early Christians were only able to experience portions of the Bible. One person would read aloud to a group, sharing passages from a handwritten copy of the text.
Today our smartphones give us hundreds of complete Bibles in our pockets. And the audio versions of many of these can actually “read” to us from God’s inspired Word!
The Bible App helps you engage more with Scripture, no matter what you’re doing: exercising, getting ready for work, on your commute…even reading along.1
