SourceView Together turns Scripture into a thread you can actually follow. Every line is colored by who is speaking - narrator, divine speech, named principals, and everyone else - the same way you already read a group text. At a glance, you know who's talking and how the conversation moves, across 774 distinct voices and 365 stories. The Bible is laid out as 365 complete narrative stories, not chapter-and-verse fragments. Each story is a whole arc - Creation read start to finish in one sitting, about fifteen to twenty minutes, with nothing lost to an artificial chapter break. Follow the year on a visual thread, open a division, pick a story, and keep going. Meet the cast of voices as you go - Cast tracks who you've heard, how often, and where. Read alone, or gather a few people and read it like a script: each person takes a source color and reads that voice aloud, so the story plays out as a conversation. After the story, Talk about it offers discussion questions for family, a class, or a small group. Keep a daily streak, react and leave notes on the words that land, and see your reading history as a heatmap on the You tab. Search by verse when you need a specific place in Scripture. Follow a catalog plan or a shorter challenge, or open Your Plans and build your own reading plan as a playlist of stories. English. New Living Translation. Reading progress, notes, and reactions stay on your device. Optional daily reminders are scheduled on this device only. French returns in a later update.
