We built Practice Devo for ourselves. Today, we are easily distracted and often forget to create spaces to dive deeper in our walk with God. Sometimes the best way to start is to keep it simple. Practice Devo is a completely free, ad-free, simple, easy, 365 daily devotional for both men and women, designed to capture our hearts and minds for a few moments of our busy day. Choose to dive deeper with our brand new podcast featuring believers all over the world sharing their insights from the word of the day. • Word of the Day: Each day we share a meaningful word to lay the groundwork for the day's devotion. • Definition: We've heard some of these words countless times and sometimes, as a result they began to lose their meaning. We go back to the root definition to remind ourselves that words do have meaning. • Scripture: We believe ".. the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart." (Hebrews 4:12-13). God's Word is living, active and shapes us. Reflect on Scripture that follows the theme of the day. • Practice: Devotionals are nothing without application. Our hope is that together we can become people of these words through practice and intentional living. • Prayer: Lastly, we share a prayer to guide us as we seek to become more like Jesus Christ.

About

Steeple

One verse a day, explained in plain English. Steeple puts a single Bible verse on your home screen each morning, with a short explanation that tells you what it actually means. No feeds. No noise. Most days you never need to open the app. WHAT YOU GET EVERY DAY, FREE A verse chosen for the day, in the World English Bible or the King James Version. A 60 to 90 word explanation written in ordinary language, not church language. One reflection question worth carrying into the day. A home screen and lock screen widget, in four sizes. A daily reminder at a time you choose. A reading streak that forgives one missed day a month, quietly. The explanation is free and always will be. Gating it would defeat the point. WRITTEN FOR PEOPLE, NOT FOR SCHOLARS Every explanation follows the same rules. Start with the situation the passage is actually about. Give one ordinary application, the kind of thing that happens on a Tuesday. End settled rather than instructing. Never guilt anyone. Never claim to speak for God. Where Christians genuinely read a passage differently, Steeple says so and gives the main lines of difference instead of quietly picking a side. There is no politics and no prosperity teaching anywhere in it. ASK ANYTHING ABOUT THE VERSE Not sure what a passage means? Ask AI, and get an answer grounded in that verse and its immediate context. Answers are AI generated and can be imperfect, and Steeple tells you so plainly rather than pretending otherwise. HONEST PRICING, STATED UP FRONT Steeple Premium is $49.99 a year, which is $4.17 a month, or $9.99 month to month. Both plans start with a 7 day free trial, the app tells you the exact date your card will be charged before you start it, and it reminds you two days before that date. Your plan renews until you cancel. No weekly plans. No hidden tiers. Cancel in two taps from Profile. Premium adds 30 questions a day, every verse you have missed from your past year, and unlimited saved verses. Your first 3 questions are free, so you can see what an answer is like before paying anything. Everything else stays free. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No login. No email address. No ads and no advertising identifier. Steeple never asks permission to track you. Your streak, your saved verses and your settings stay on your iPhone. There is no sync, so there is no copy of your reading sitting on a server. Steeple does count anonymous usage and receive crash reports, using Google Firebase, so that faults can be found and the app made better. Both are tied to a random install number rather than to you, and neither is ever linked to an advertising profile, sold, or shared with a data broker. The only thing Steeple sends anywhere is a question you type into Ask, and nothing identifying you goes with it. Works offline, apart from Ask. TRANSLATIONS Every verse comes in both the World English Bible and the King James Version, and you can switch between them at any time. Both are in the public domain, which is what lets Steeple include them at no cost. Steeple is a daily verse app, not a Bible reader. There is no full Bible to browse or search, and that is deliberate: the whole promise is one verse, chosen for you, understood in thirty seconds. ACCESSIBILITY Full Dynamic Type support at every size including the largest, and complete VoiceOver labelling on every screen and on the widget.
