You've prayed God's promises. You've read them, underlined them, even memorized them. So why do they still feel like they belong to someone else? THE MISSING PIECE Most people receive Scripture as general truth — powerful, but distant. "God heals the sick." "He gives peace." "He provides for His people." But there's a profound difference between a promise about God and a promise spoken directly to you. My Personalized Bible writes your name into the verses — so every promise you read isn't a fact about someone else. It's God speaking to you, by name. SEE THE DIFFERENCE FOR YOURSELF "The Lord gives strength to His people; the Lord blesses His people with peace." — Psalm 29:11 vs. "The Lord gives strength to Emily; the Lord blesses Emily with peace." — Psalm 29:11 Same verse. One is theology. The other is God speaking directly to you. HOW IT WORKS 1. Enter your first name and whether you are male or female 2. Choose the topic that meets you where you are right now 3. Read and hear God's promises spoken over you — by name No account required. No card. You see your name in Scripture in under a minute. YOUR TOPICS INCLUDE - Find Peace When I Feel Anxious - Receive My Healing - Stop Overthinking - Praying for My Marriage - Seeing Myself How God Sees Me - Start My Morning With God - End My Day with God - When I Feel Overwhelmed - Trust God with Money …and more, with new topics added regularly Each topic includes up to 90 personalized verses — organized and ready to read, speak, and declare. FEATURES - Your name written directly into every verse - Switch between Name-Specific mode ("Emily declares…") and First-Person mode ("I declare…") - High-quality male and female narration — listen while you drive, walk, or rest with speed control - Light, cream, and dark reading backgrounds - Adjustable font size and your choice of serif or sans-serif style - Highlight verses in color, save your favorites, and search your highlights - Share personalized verses as beautiful images on social media - Daily reading streak to build a consistent declaration habit - Continue reading — picks up exactly where you left off PREMIUM — EVERYTHING UNLOCKED Subscribe to get access to premium features: HEAR IT IN YOUR OWN VOICE Record a short voice sample and the app reads God's promises back to you in your own voice. No voice is more familiar, more comforting, or more powerful to your own spirit than yours. 21 DAY READING PLANS Enroll in free, structured, 21 day topical reading plans to get a verse delivered to you at a time you set each day with a brief meditation to start your day off strong. 20+ Premium Voices Choose from a library or rich, natural-sounding voices to narrate your scripture reading. DECLARE THE WORD OVER THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE Add up to 10 friends and family members — your spouse, your children, your closest friends — and read Scripture personalized for them by name. Switch who you're declaring over from the home screen or right inside the reader. This is not a Bible app with a verse of the day and a generic reading plan. My Personalized Bible is a personalized declaration and meditation tool — built for believers who are ready to stop reading God's promises at a distance and start receiving them as the personal covenant they were always meant to be. Faith comes by hearing. Start hearing it spoken to you — by name. Download free and see your name in Scripture today. License Agreement (EULA): https://myversionbook.com/terms-of-use/

Good Ground is a chapter-based Bible study workspace designed to help you slow down, examine Scripture closely, and keep track of what you learn. Start with the text. Read a full chapter, unlock key verse insights, then move into a guided study or explore the chapter through deeper reference material. GUIDED STUDY Each chapter can become a step-by-step study with five parts: Overview — understand the shape and central ideas of the passage Observations — notice patterns, details, and important features in the text Examination — work through questions, write your own answers, and reveal additional insights Reflection — consider the passage carefully and record your responses Prayer — gather prayer points from the study and write your own prayer Your progress is saved as you go, so you can leave a study and return where you stopped. REFERENCE Dig further into a chapter through six research tabs: History — explore the historical setting and timeline Culture — understand relevant customs, practices, and social context Structure — examine how the passage is organized Keywords — study important words, including Strong's data, definitions, and their sense within the passage Cross-References — follow parallels and thematic connections across Scripture Commentary — consult multiple commentary lenses with attribution and synthesis VERSE TOOLS Long-press a verse while reading to investigate it more closely. View a verse insight, clip it for later, add an annotation, explore Strong's information for individual words, or ask a question about the passage. YOUR WORKBENCH Every chapter has its own Workbench for the work you do while studying. Write notes, collect clippings, and ask contextual questions without leaving your study. YOUR JOURNAL Your Journal brings your work across chapters together in one place. Revisit notes, clippings, examination and reflection responses, prayers, and previous study sessions. Filter your entries, edit your notes, and return directly to the passage they came from. BUILD A STUDY PRACTICE Browse the Bible by book and chapter, continue recent reading, work through curated studies and multi-chapter study plans, set study goals, track your progress, and optionally schedule a daily study reminder. Scripture remains available to read for free. Free accounts include three chapter unlocks for the full Study and Reference tools. Good Ground Pro provides unlimited access to the complete Study and Reference experience, verse insights, study goals, featured studies, the cross-chapter Journal, and the full Workbench, including notes, clippings, and contextual Ask tools. All study content is reviewed against trusted scholarship as part of a strict editorial process before publication. AI assists with research and drafting, but nothing reaches you without passing through that review first. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
