I wish they would finish the gospels Mark & John .

I really like the lay out and reflections. It’s the best Lectio Divina method of reading the Bible out there.

3/3/2023

Just downloaded this app yesterday and am finding it so helpful! Giving only 4 stars because readings for Mark and John were promised for 2019 and 2018, respectively… it’s now 2023 so I wonder what happened to the developers. Nonetheless, there is still plenty to meditate on from Luke and Matthew. Also it’s free and I didn’t need to set up an account to use it - another big plus!

Best app for quiet time!

I love this app as it helps me to be quiet and meditate on scripture. It’s amazing how I can remember it all day long and how it stays with me.

Great app to begin this spiritual practice!

If you are new to Lectio Divina, this is an awesome app to start this spiritual practice. Even if you are learned in this way of praying, I have very much enjoyed using it during my quiet times. Very easy to use and gives clear guidance in each section.
