Read Scripture

The goal of Read Scripture is that everyone would read the Bible for themselves and discover the truth and beauty of God’s Word.
Category Price Seller Device
Book Free Crazy Love Ministries iPhone, iPad, iPod

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.

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

Amazing! Love this App’
Cloclo675

I absolutely love this app! Love the videos and scheduling of readings and reminders. It makes it so much easier to get through some tough books of the Bible and the explanation/meaning behind them gives such better understanding! Thank you for all you do!


Good app but limited!
skindogg50

There are many things I love about this app. #1 is the videos. They are excellent!! I also like the reading plan and how it is divided up into major themes of the Bible. Now for the negatives. #1- there is no way to listen to the Bible readings. I like to read and listen to the scriptures and that is not an option with this app. #2- I am reading the scriptures with a group of people and for accountability and encouragement, we comment on what we read. There is no way to do this within this app. Last year we read thru the Bible in the you version app. Though we all like read scripture plan and videos better, the listening and comment feature makes you version a better option in my opinion.


Not moving on

My app seems to be stuck in the same spot and I can’t keep track of where I am. Looking for a new app ?


Excellent, but could be updated
sensosmith

Absolutely love this app, went through myself and it was an incredible experience that taught me more about the Bible and helped me to grow as a Christian more than I ever had before. That being said, I think it would really be benefitted from an update. It’s lacking BibleProject’s many new videos detailing Biblical themes and the books themselves (for example, their older animated Mark series is included in the reading plan but their newer animated Luke-Acts series is totally absent). I would love to see the app continually updated with BibleProject’s new releases! Highly recommend this for anyone seeking to understand the whole Bible on a deep level, it will change your life.


Very helpful

I have thoroughly enjoyed this app for some time now and continue to be blessed by it daily. I’m so thankful for the people who have worked so hard and faithfully to provide it to all and without charge to boot. God bless you all.


I LOVE this app but...
RyanJamesGeorge

I absolutely LOVE this app, but I’m greedy for MORE! The Bible project has released SO MANY more videos. Is there a way we can have an update with more? Please? Thank you so much for setting this up. It’s wonderful. Also, is it possible to add a way to read with someone? I disciple a lot of guys and it would be cool if they could ask questions or make comments remotely. I know I’m asking a lot for a five star review, but it’s because this is the best way to engage scripture in the App Store. I want to milk it for everything I can.


Doesn’t work
maureenfrancis

This app was Good in the beginning but now the videos freeze up and it is those videos that make this app attractive. Those videos help me understand what I’m reading.


A few changes would make this great
Zirbirak

Love the app, but a few changes would improve it a lot. I wish we could create an account so that our reading would sync across devices. So that I could use my iPhone or my iPad and my progress would be shown on both devices. That would be really helpful. Another thing that would be nice is if there was audio for the readings as well. And I have also noticed that the Read Scripture/Bible Project videos are not updated on this app as more are being made. The reading plan listed on the Bible project website has a lot more videos listed with different sections than what is shown on this app. It would be great if the new videos were placed on the app when made available.


Beautiful way to stay on track
Dave124689

I love the way this app is designed and how it’s tailored to help one stay on track with reading the Bible and praying each and every day. I also really appreciate that the verse numbers can be removed to make it more like reading a novel or something. However, I do wish there was a way to highlight sections that stand out or leave notes in the passage. Part of studying God’s word should be writing down the things that you learn or He shows you and there isn’t a good way to do that right now. I’d love it if there were someday!


Life altering content in an amazing app
@gtcolorado2

I came across The Bible Project through RightNow Media & loved the illustrations on the books of the Bible. Found this app by happenstance and I absolutely love it. Unlike any other bible reading plan, it provides additional content and prayers through visuals and additional readings. By far my favorite and most used app.
