Each day’s devotional can be read or listened to in less than 5 minutes, but the content is rich enough if you want to spend additional time digging into each passage. We study an entire Bible passage, not just a “feel good” thought based on one verse. 2) READ THROUGH THE BIBLE, COVER TO COVER Have you read through the entire Bible? With the Today in the Word app, you will study every book of the Bible, even ones that you might not have explored before. We aren’t afraid to tackle the tough stuff! Bible professors make even the most difficult passages understandable and help you walk away with a direct application for your life. 3) GROW IN YOUR FAITH JOURNEY “A life changing experience” and “a spiritual revival to my heart”, readers say that this isn’t just about reading the Bible, but letting it change your life! While you may believe that spending regular time in God’s Word strengthens your faith, putting it into practice can be difficult. The app can be used alone or for group study. Each devotional ends with questions that can serve as journal prompts or discussion starters. 4) GET MONTHLY BONUS RESOURCES - Watch video interviews with devotional authors - Share beautiful Verse-of-the-Day graphics - Select your preferred Bible translation - Receive push notifications that remind you to read the Bible - Record and save your study notes - Listen to audio of each devotional - Listen to abbreviated or full-length audio of each devotional - This app offers push notifications to remind you to read. - Track your reading consistency with a “streak”! - Join a Facebook devotional discussion group 5) JOIN MORE THAN ONE MILLION READERS!
