I love new ways to approach and read the Scriptures; it’s one of the few areas that I can really rejoice in. Although one may be critical of the “consumer mentality” of choice when it comes to reading the Word, here’s my bottom line: At least they’re reading it!

Better than not reading it, right?

So here’s what the “New Daylight Bible Reading App” offers:

New Daylight offers daily Bible readings and reflections for everybody who wants to go deeper with God. The free app contains a sample of 7 readings and reflections that you can keep and use on your iPhone forever.

The New Daylight app opens on a specially prepared reading each and every day of the year. It is ideal for those looking for a fresh approach to regular Bible study, and offers a talented team of contributors who present a Bible passage (text included), helpful comment and a prayer or thought for the day ahead.

Here are some of their key features:

• Save your favourite readings to go back to again and again
• Change the font size to make your reading more comfortable
• Email a selected reading to a friend
• Keep track of all readings you have missed to allow you to catch up
• Browse the readings by Bible book, contributor or date
• The readings are presented as pages so no need to scroll and lose your place

I think the only thing I’m not happy about is the fact that you have to buy other subscriptions. I like free!
