Support the Mission: Celebrate 15 Years of Impact!

Do you remember the first time you read God’s Word and it changed your life?

Because of the Bible App, people around the world are being transformed by God’s Word every day.

In the past 15 years, we've seen… 1,965 Bible text languages added. 139 million Prayers created. 575.7 million app installs. 1.1 billion Verse Images shared. 16 billion Highlights, Bookmarks, and Notes made to verses.

The Bible App is, and always will be, free—but the impact of this ministry would not be what it is without the generosity of our YouVersion Community.

Join the movement to reach everyone, everywhere, every single day.

When you give a gift of US$40, you’re making it possible for 200 people to download the Bible App.

Give Now

God has done amazing things through the Bible App, but there are still billions of people who haven’t experienced the life-changing power of God’s Word.

Today, help us continue to bring God’s Word to billions of people in the next 15 years.

A Prayer for a Generous Heart

What’s your most prized possession? There’s nothing wrong with having things, or with enjoying them. The problem comes when our things have us.

Thankfully, God modeled a different way to live when He sacrificed His greatest treasure for us. His generosity is sacrificial and counter-cultural.

When we give like God does, and we honor Him with that giving, it draws us closer to Him. It causes us to stop looking at ourselves, and start looking out for others. The more we draw near to God, the more our priorities and values start to reflect His.

So, how do you live generously? It starts with asking God to give you a generous mindset. If you’re not sure how to do that, try praying this prayer.

God,

Thank You for showing me what generosity looks like. I confess that at times it’s easy for me to focus on things that don’t matter. But today, I surrender to Your will, trusting in You completely. Change the way I think, and give me a generous heart. Make me aware of the resources I have, and how I can use them to serve others. Help me to live a life that blesses others just as You have richly blessed me.

In Jesus’ name,

Amen.

When you surrender to God by living generously, it changes lives.

A gift of $40 US helps us get Bible App to 200 people—that’s 200 people around the world whose lives will be changed forever by the power of God’s Word.
