Two weeks ago, my blog became part of the Bible Gateway Blogger Grid. According to Bible Gateway, “Bible Gateway Blogger Grid (BG²) is an international network of independent bloggers who meaningfully blog-and who are serious-about matters relating to the Bible.”
If you are not familiar with Bible Gateway, the site offers many tools to people who want to study the Bible. Its online Bible search engine allows people to search several Bibles in English, Spanish, and several other languages.
A press release by HarperCollins, the company that owns Bible Gateway, explains the purpose of Bible Gateway:
As the Internet’s largest Christian website, Bible Gateway seeks to encourage Bible reading and scriptural understanding among Bible readers everywhere. Celebrating 20 years online, Bible Gateway offers free access to the Bible in more than 70 languages and 180 different versions. Bible Gateway’s website and app receive 130-140 million views per month.
Recently, Bible Gateway was awarded the Christian Mobile/Tablet App of the Year for the Bible Gateway App. According to the press release by HarperCollins,
The Bible Gateway App includes the complete text and audio of multiple bestselling Bible versions in more than 80 languages, Bible reading plans, Bible commentaries and dictionaries, the ability to highlight and take notes, and share content with social media such as Facebook and Twitter.
The Following are some of Bible Gateway’s most popular tools:
1. Christmas and Advent email devotionals
3. Online devotional libraries
4. Audio Bibles
