The 500 Life-studies (500LS) app aims to help and encourage believers to become constituted with the truth in the Bible by using the Life-study of the Bible in a regular and habitual way. The Life-study of the Bible, a monumental and classic work by Witness Lee, is a book-by-book exposition of the entire Bible from the perspective of the believers’ enjoyment of Christ as life for the building up of the church as the Body of Christ. The "500" refers to the goal of reading at least 500 Life-study messages for your spiritual nourishment and growth. FEATURES: Customizable schedules: Create one or more reading schedules that can accommodate your reading capacity and time. Consider starting small to achieve better consistency. Easy access to the Life-study messages: Access your reading directly in the app via a simple reader without the need for Internet connection or via integration with ministrybooks.org (available for free or with a paid subscription). Progress visualization: Track both your overall progress and recent progress as you work toward your goals and earn milestone badges along the way.

I have gained so much from reading the life studies. This app helps motivate me to press on and keeps me regulated on a schedule. It has been fantastic. Lately, though, after reading a couple life study messages (through the app) the next day will have no content. At first I thought it was because of the schedule so I would wait a day but it just continued to have no content. So I would have to delete my schedule and remake it starting at the life study that went blank. The same thing has happened to my husband as well. We are reading in the life study messages of 1 Peter. We love this app, so we hope that bug can be solved. Thank you to whoever is laboring on this app. It is a huge benefit. ### 5/5 — Ho I know it is good up here in your *2023-07-28* Now I can see what you ### 5/5 — Powerful *2023-05-16* When we read the Lord’s Word again and again, all the worldly matters in us are removed, and we are cleansed and sanctified. God’s word brings in God’s reality, and in us it produces a special effect, which is to sanctify us and to deliver us from this mixed world so that we may be separated unto God. ## Frequently asked questions about 500 Life ### What is the 500 Life-studies app?
