Description

The goal of Read Scripture is that everyone would read the Bible for themselves and discover the truth and beauty of God’s Word.

To this end, we are curating a year-long Bible reading plan and supplementing the reading with amazingly creative videos (produced by our friends at the Bible Project) that explain every book of the Bible, major theological themes of the gospel, and tips on how to read the Bible.

We will house all of this content in a beautifully designed app that will be available to download in the App Store and on Google Play.

We encourage you to experience Read Scripture in community but it is set up so that you can go through it on your own.

Scripture quotations are from the ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®), copyright © 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers. Used by permission. All rights reserved.

This is the best Bible reading app out there. The videos, though covering the same ground as many study bibles, give great and intriguing intros to each book and, I think, do a better job of helping you retain that info than said study bibles. The only downside is that the is no offline capabilities. It would be nice if at least the scripture readings were available offline. Amazing if the video content could be too.

Great app! Helps me read and understand Bible more. Videos are awesome, too bad they don't work on the app... Unfortunately it is not the only technical issue. For example I cannot go to settings because the whole app freezes and then shuts down... Please try to fix it. Because the idea behind the app is brilliant. God bless

Recommended by our Pastor, we began using this app a week ago. We love it! The video overviews are very well done, and aid in overall context of the readings. If you haven't tried a Bible reading app, try this one. Just a few miniutes a day, and you're theough all of the Bible in a year. Crazy Love Ministries, thank you for this! Blessed reading, everyone!

This app makes the Bible so accessible for someone reading it for the first time! The videos are so helpful at breaking down the core messages of the texts and keeping the reader engaged. I love the set up of each segment being followed up by a Psalm. Love this app!

I haven't started using it yet. But I am very excited as I have looked through the way it is set out and how user friendly it is. How it guides you and has lovely points on breathing and prayer. A beautiful set up. Thank you! I can't wait to get started

Excellent videos grasp the essence of each book. All text ready to read, including the Psalm for meditation. Tick each unit as complete and return to correct place - no stress associate with am I on the 'right' date. Not a detailed study but great for getting an overview. The Bible is exciting, this approach shows how!

Awesome! Only problem is it can't be used offline, which seems silly to me considering Bible reading is something we should be aiming to shut out distractions while doing.

The Bible reading plan is great. But the videos gloss over the trinity and the person of the Holy Spirit. I don't care what your intentions are you can't make a video about the Holy Spirit and not mention that he is God. You need to change the title of that video to "a word study on ruach.

Wayne Anderson March 22, 2017

I think this is one of the best reading Bible reading plans I have ever used. The videos are amazing. They really helped bring understanding to the books of the Bible, as well as, the flow through the entire Bible.

Nithin Regi Mathew March 31, 2017

This is the best app I have ever seen that puts God's Word in a nutshell. I understand that the videos can be taken offline on YouTube from the channel "Bible Project". Thank you.

Victor Allan April 18, 2017

The in-app video only shows black screen. How do I fix this?

Drew Bannon May 23, 2017

This is the absolute best Bible reading app. The videos in the app help you get an understanding of what your about to read. This format is the best way I have read the Bible in my entire life. I highly recommend it to everyone. I really want the app to have note-taking capabilities , and be able to read aloud to you.

Stacie Mahler April 7, 2017

So excited to have found this! So hungry for all of Gods word and to share this with family and friends! THANK YOU!!

June 18, 2017

Love it! Flows seamlessly. Videos helpful and high quality. I'm recommending to all my friends. Captures intersection of ancient truth and modern tech perfectly. Keep in mind...this is a read the bible in a year plan, not a general bible app.

Amy Lyons May 10, 2017

This app--both the Scripture reading calendar and the accompanying videos--are INCREDIBLE!! I HIGHLY recommend this app to both long-time followers of Jesus and those that are not even sure if they are journeying yet!! SUCH a PRICELESS blessing to my journey of faith!!!! Thanks!!

May 23, 2017

Great app. Really helps me understand the Bible.

Matt Bryant April 13, 2017

Great app. The videos bring great clarity. I only wish the app would work offline. If there was an offline mode it would be five stars.

Marcelle Combrinck May 4, 2017

Amazing one year Bible reading plan, the Bible Project also puts a lot of scripture into context that helps you see the whole story. Easy to navigate and read. Thanks for an awesome app!

TheSkyward Princess April 30, 2017

It has encouraged me as a young christian to learn more and more about Christ.

March 25, 2017

Love this app, so helpful with the discipline of daily readings and the videos open the scripture up throughout! What a gifted set of people blessing followers of Jesus in a real practical way!

Sam Pt May 8, 2017

Emil Barna May 8, 2017

Awesome app! First time I find reading the Bible engaging. Perhaps an update is in order? Incorporating the new videos, and perhaps blog posts and podcasts, etc.

ABISOLA ODUNAYO April 14, 2017

Best bible app ever!! A must have. God bless the people who came together to produce this great work.

This Rocks!!! Brilliantly done for anyone to fall in love with the Scriptures. Well Done and Thank you for all your hard work.

Fredy Ramirez March 24, 2017

Qing Xiu He April 21, 2017

Prefer just video as there are so many bible app, a bit redundant

Martin Martin May 5, 2017

An outstanding app. Download and follow instructions. If there were 10 stars I will surely have given a 10 star rating.
