A Bible study app for reading, reflection and notes

Make room for this reading habit

A question from a morning reading is easy to lose by evening. Keeping it with the reading gives you something specific to revisit. Include the Bible reference in the note so you can find the passage again and see how the question arose.

Start with a passage short enough to read carefully. Look at who is speaking and what happens before and after it. Write down the part you are unsure about. You can discuss the question with a teacher or someone in your church, then return to the text with what you learned.

How Devotionals helps

• The full Bible and a guided daily reading plan.
• Bible references within devotional readings.
• Notes and highlights on reading content for saving questions and observations.
• Daily devotional material and weekly Sabbath School lessons.

Try a simple reading practice

In Luke 10:25–37, compare the question at the beginning of the Good Samaritan account with the question Jesus asks at the end. Write down what you notice about the change. If you came to the passage through a devotional in the app, keep that observation in its reading note, together with the reference. You can return to the whole account when you revisit the question.

1. Choose a Bible passage or open a devotional reading and follow its reference.
2. Read the surrounding verses before applying one sentence.
3. Save a question in a note on the reading, including the Bible reference.
4. Revisit the passage and your question after further reading or discussion.

Devotionals is available for iPhone and iPad on the App Store or Android on Google Play.

In the app
