That’s the translation philosophy behind the New International Version (NIV): giving you the most accurate text possible in clear, natural English. But your translation shouldn’t be one of them. To be sure, there are plenty of things for us to wrestle with in the Bible. Those who heard God’s Word could understand it. The Scriptures captured exactly what God wanted to say to them in their everyday language and idiom. But that’s not how it felt to its original audience. Sometimes the Bible can feel like a foreign book. The translation philosophy of the New International Version (NIV) is to recreate this experience for you in contemporary English. There was no gap between hearing God’s Word and understanding it. When the books of the Bible were first written, they spoke clearly to people in their heart language. Devotional & Christian Living Devotional.Other than those things, I highly recommend this app and would love to give 5 stars if someone can offer us a solution for our gem shortage problem. (Though I will say, I love the gospel overview story at the end and how you tie the Bible together for kids! Excellent!) The last thing would be to continue developing more stories! I’d love to talk with him about other parables, Old Testament, and New Testament stories, especially as he gets overly familiar with these ones. Also, I would love to see an option to replay the story narration without having to turn the pages so he can listen again when a loud noise interrupts him. Now they aren’t showing up anymore and I’m wondering if we just can’t get them now? Which makes me really sad because we’ve been talking about the fruits of the spirit and I’d love to unlock that story collection with him to talk about them more. My kids love this app so much! We’ve had it for a long time now and they have earned all three stars on almost every story, but because my son was only 2 when we started using it, he would often skip over the gems in the stories without collecting them to unlock the other new stories. Just for our enjoyment, not out of a need. I hope that more stories might be added in the future (not to say that this app doesn’t already have tons of stories, but the Bible is LONG and you could create hundreds of stories). No advertisements whatsoever and totally free (a huge blessing from the maker of this app). My child has learned so much thanks to this app! It’s encouraged many discussions, too. The way it is written is perfect for young children to understand, with a great narrator. The child can click different things in the picture and they move or react. It reads the story out loud and has a simple animation to go with it. They are all interactive which really makes the difference in engaging your child. They have tons of Bible stories and all are well done. It’s made so well for young kids to figure out! He’s now just getting interested in collecting the Bible gems. He knows how to navigate, play the learning games, listen and answer the questions. My son has been using this app since he was 2, and now that he is 3.5 years old he can use it totally independently. I can’t say enough good things about this app. Special challenges that let kids earn rewardsįrom YouVersion in partnership with OneHope.Fun facts and activities designed to help kids remember what they learn.Engaging, interactive content that brings the Bible to life.It’s the beginning of a lifelong love of God’s Word.
