About this app

Have you ever wanted to share a scripture with someone but didn't have your Bible with you, or couldn't remember the reference? First Principles puts the foundational Bible studies of eleven church study series on your phone, with every verse one tap away. You can always be ready to make the most of every opportunity!

"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." 1 Peter 3:15

What's inside:

• Eleven study series: Boston, Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Denver, Hampton Roads, ICOC (1993), Johannesburg, Orange County, Philadelphia, San Diego and South Florida, with more to come.

• Tap any underlined scripture reference and the full passage opens right there in the study, with no lookup and no leaving the page.

• Search finds every series that mentions a word or phrase.

• Works without an internet connection once installed.

• Free, with no ads, no sign-in and no data collected.

awesome, but it would be more helpful if there would be one core document as a milestone, then person can individually look up individual churches documents to spice up the study.

I'm so grateful!!! I deleted it and downloaded it again, but it won't open anymore. It just keeps saying "Checking for updates"

I'm super glad that this condenses all of the Church's Study Series. Very helpful to have a comprehensive reference.
