Let me introduce you to YouVersion.com. It’s unlike any online Bible reader out there in that it provides an opportunity for us to build community and engage a conversation about what we’re reading and studying together in God’s Word. I’ve been dabbling with YouVersion.com since it launched. In December, I committed to it fully. It’s been my primary Bible for reading and study Scripture. As an example, it’s what I’m currently using to read through the entire Bible in a year.
Last week, YouVersion.com came out of beta with some great new features. Here’s a partial list of what you’ll find in the new version:
- A new and improved UI
- Movable widgets for contributions, daily reading, and your journal
- Tag, bookmark, and link without leaving the reader
- Optional parallel readers let you read two different versions on the same page
- My page features your friends’ contributions, likes and bookmarks
- Community page shows the entire YouVersion community feed
- Mobile Pages for more information and download links
I’d encourage you to check out YouVersion.com. And, if you’re daring, you can follow me and join my current journey through the Bible.
i love what these guys are going
Tony,
Great post with great explanation. Hope you didn’t mind but I put a link to your post in what I wrote so that those who read my blog can get a better understanding of it from your point of view, seeing you are much better at explaining things. Keep on keeping on Man….
I would love to use it but for some reason I have been only able to view the mobile version in my computer’s browser… any ideas for a solution?
Thanks for sharing this. I’m so excited to show my small group!
@Aaron, the new YouVersion doesn’t support IE6 and redirects to mobile, so that may be it :)
i’m just waiting for them to come out with the bbstorm app…
