Read Scripture App Reviews

I love The Bible Project!

The Bible Project has been so helpful to me in understanding how all the books in the Bible form an overlaying story, and how each book fits into the picture, regardless of style, authorship, and time in which each book is written. The videos are my favorite part. Keep it up! One thing I would like to see within the Read Scripture app is the ability to underline or highlight, and the ability to write notes. Looking forward to watching this app and The Bible Project as a whole develop!

Much needed - thanks

Its a beautifully simple way of reading the scriptures. Thanks for making this possible!

This project and app are awesome

I love the new app interface and the project is great!

Incredibly helpful and digestible

I have been using this app for a few weeks now, and with the recent update the app has gone from good to great. The videos are incredibly helpful, and they have broken down the Bible with digestible pacing. The new UI is smooth and very nice to use. Great job!

Awesome!

It doesnt replace the you version Bible app but is a spectacular app for pacing out the bible over a year. The videos and insights are excellent! They really make the app worth trying. Its now my go-to app as a daily devotional.

Great resource!

Youth Pastor Opinion

Love this app! Plan on using it for discipleship with students. Very accessible, and helpful in building a discipline of devotion.

Enjoyable Bible Reading Plan

This app makes it easy to enjoy reading the Read Scripture plan on the go. Having the daily Psalm at the end is helpful and less likely to forget reading and praying them. Great job!

New update is fantastic

I recently found you guys through chans we are church and was making do with the old version. I thought the project was one of the coolest and most innovative things happening in the evangelical sphere right now. But the new version is simply amazing. Tims teaching is spot on which is exciting to find someone so well versed in biblical understanding teamed up with amazing art. Keep up the good work of the kingdom. And if you are checking out the app and read this review go donate to these guys at jointhebibleproject.com and help keep this going.

Fantastic app!

The recent update has made this app fantastic! It is just what I was looking for to be able to use a one year reading plan for my daily devotional. The videos are great; very well done and very informative. Thank you for building this app!

The Bible Project—Rescuing How I Read My Bible

I had all but given up hope on rescuing the Bible for me. So much of it, framed under dogma and superstitious theology, stopped working for me. There was nothing beautiful, nothing sacred amongst its pages. Each time I tried to read the Bible, I felt a form of trauma—a sick feeling that I didnt believe any of this anymore. If this is Gods word for my life, I dont think God is paying attention. It felt distant, it felt cold, and if it was to supposed to have descended from heaven, it seemed to have lost some pages in the fall. When I discovered The Bible Project, I realized that the problem wasnt the Bible, it was how I was taught to read it. When I treated it like a handbook, a guide to everyday living, it failed me. But, through the lens of story, and understanding narrative structure, and ancient context, and that all of scripture pointed to Jesus and Gods rescue plan for the earth, it unearthed a new reverence and beauty the hummed within me. Im actually excited about reading the Bible. I feel connected to its humanness. And its within that humanness that Im beginning to discover the true divine nature of the book. Much in the same way as when I connect with the humanity of Jesus, so too do I experience the divinity of the Christ. This Read Scripture app is such an incredible and perfect way to experience the work that The Bible Project is doing. Being one of the BETA testers, I can tell you that the love and care from the team that put this app together is inspiring. Its beautiful, its intuitive, and it works wonderfully. In this app: • youll have access to a daily plan of reasonable reading. • youll have access to The Bible Project videos as they are relevant to specific passages you read. • youll have the ability to tailor the reading plan to the day you begin In this app, youll experience works put together and crafted by humans over the last three thousand years (Biblical authors), all the way up to the last couple of years (The Bible Project). And if youre paying attention—if you allow the Spirit to move—in all of its humanness, you might just experience the divine.

Great but buggy

This is an incredible app. The videos paired with daily readings and psalms to pray is life changing. The only problem is that when I set the date to the time I started and make my reading plan current, it will not open. It freezes on the introduction screen. Hope to see it fixed soon. A great concept

New layout is awesome!

Love the new layout. Much easier to see the overall reading plan and to navigate through the books.

Good but not great

I love the app and the redesign, but the new version wont recognize when I open the app. On the old version, the app notification would disappear when I read for the day. In the new version, the app notification (number 1) wont go away.

Great Update!

Best update for a daily reading Bible app, and I would pay for it even if they charged (hope not though)!

Love but cant open

I love this however I have to keep reloading it because it repeatedly freezes upon opening. I would love for this to be fixed. Im getting behind on the schedule;)

Wonderful!

Love this app. Makes my daily reading time more focused and helps me generate the discipline of reading daily.
