Read Scripture

Crazy Love Ministries

About this app

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.

Ratings and reviews

I have read almost the entire Bible with this app. It's been life changing! I wish there was an option to switch it to chronological order. That's my next adventure in diving into the good word. Regardless, the Bible project team has done a wonderful job with the explanatory videos that have really helped me understand what I'm reading much better.

Excellent app...when it works. I have the pixel 8 and when I try to watch one of the included videos the app closes. Same thing happens if I try to rotate the screen when the app is open. Another annoying thing is what when I am able to watch a video, the phone still tries to go to sleep, unlike when watching videos anywhere else, so I have to tap the screen like every 15 seconds to keep it awake.

Great companion app for daily devotionals! The videos for each book and themes are excellent resources, providing background and context. My only complaint is that after my Galaxy s9 updated, the app only displays a blank screen. Reinstalling it doesn't seem to do anything, and none of my setting changes impacts it either.
