The New YouVersion Prayer Feature In Its Bible App


by

“Pray without ceasing.” Easy right? Well, yes and no. It’s no wonder that there are many prayer notebooks, Bibles and apps to help people. This is why the YouVersion Prayer feature is worth a look.

Create A Custom, Tailored Bible Reading Plan for This Year

  • The whole Bible in a year vs part of the Bible;
  • One long reading a day vs readings from different sections of the Bible;
  • Reading the Bible in the order it appears vs chronologically reading the Bible;
  • A Psalm every day vs only reading the Psalms once;
  • Seven days a week vs a plan with catch up days.

Sometimes you can find a plan which has a few of these characteristics but not all. Well, John Dyer created a tool to help you make the Bible reading plan you want.
