The Bible with Nicky and Pippa

I just got this app because I decided I wanted to try and read the Bible in one year. I did not do much research, I just picked an app. God lead me to this app. It is wonderful. I expected it to give me a few verses to read everyday, but it is so much more. It includes daily scriptures from Psalms/Proverbs, the New Testament, and the Old Testament. It also includes a reading that follows up with the scripture you read. The reading helps break down some of the scripture that might have been hard to understand in that context. It has helped me relate what I have read into my daily life. Then it also includes prayers that you can use as you finish. What a wonderful tool. The only request I have is a function that would allow highlighting or note taking. This obviously is not imperative, but would be a nice addition.

It has been a goal of mine to do this, but I have never been successful using a book or reading guide. I would start well, but struggled to stick with it. Last year I thought...if only there was an app, it would be so much easier. Nicky and Pippa Gumbel have created a way to make daily Bible reading a habit in my busy life. I love that I can listen to the scripture passages & commentary while I go for a walk. I love the added commentaries that tie the Old and New Testament passages together with a focus on Jesus and what he has done for us. Thank you!!

I'm a little frustrated. Its only day 6 of the new year, and I was excited to use this app to push myself to read the Bible daily-- however since day 3 I've had issues with the present day not loading (my time is sectioned out so to have it already downloadable/just THERE ready to read on the app is essential to me) but now the overall content is not loading at all. Like another user, I deleted the app and reinstalled, tried using data vs secure wifi.. nothing has allowed the content to restore. The website link has no support or contact page, and I'd just like it to be fixed so I can carry on with my commitment. If the app isn't going to be resolved, even having the breakdown of the year (chapters to read per day) as a PDF on the website would be helpful. I can follow along on my own.

It’s December 4th and I will finish BiOY at the end of the month. This has been a daily part of my life for a year and I don’t know what I’ll do without it. I think I may just have to do this again. I mostly do the audio every morning on the treadmill. It’s about 25 minutes starting with commentary leading into Proverbs or Psalms then commentary, New Testament, commentary in the New Testament scripture then Old Testament with commentary. A friend told me its best to start the app on 1/1 and I agree. Unless I find something else on a similar format I think I will do the again.

I love this app and use it every day. It takes me through the Bible in one year and gets me engaged in the Word. The commentary is excellent and thought provoking. I use it in conjunction with the Bible app devotion . I copy the Bible app devotion and highlight the devotion and read through the scriptures. Then I reinforce what I have learned by listening to it on this app. I listen in the car, walking, while doing chores. . . The possibilities are endless. Reading and learning the Bible will have effects that last throughout eternity.
