A friend of mine was asked to stand in front of a congregation for sincerely reading the Bible from his Windows Tablet and I simply told him I’d walk away if I got similar treatment from any preacher. You are free to call it pride or whatever but that’s not the point, the point is that technology has come to stay and the Church is certainly not an exception.
I can’t remember the last I carried a print version of the Bible and that’s doesn’t make me less a Christian neither does carrying the Biggest golden cover print Bible make anyone more holy.
If that was the case, then everyone should have long scrolls portions of the Bible. The emergence of printing machines and computers made the Bible compilable and easy to carry. As that was the case then so it is now. We can have the Bible inside our PCs, Tablets and Smartphones.
Mobile Bibles or e-Bibles are really incredible and a nice collection to the list of apps on our app drawer. Christian religious apps have played a major role in the $25 Billion app industry.

Hello Nosa, you are such a live saver, funny me who loves religious apps but never bothered to search the google play store for them.
I think my only remaining app will be the gospel hymns for church use as that has been top in my most wanted list for new religious applications.
I barely know about this olive study app but never bothered to explore the other features of it.
Thanks for sharing this whole lots brother

Hello Obasi,
You didn’t search because they probably won’t rack in money to your bank account 🙂 . Olive study app is really nice bro, alot of these apps have let me understood scriptures better. It is not enough to sit in a congregation and be spoon-fed by a religious teacher.
Apostle paul specifically asked gentiles to study and Jesus equally said; the only thing that guarantees freedom is truth. To get truth, we must study scriptures and these apps makes it really cool doing so.
I haven’t tested Gospel hymns, I will give it a shot. Thanks for visiting friend 🙂
