Your daily Bible reading guide with study notes

WordLive, from Scripture Union, is a free, online guide, helping you meet with God devotionally - through the Bible. Each day uses a new Bible passage with fresh resources to refresh your quiet time with God. There are three three distinct approaches: Classic, alt and Lectio.


WordLive Classic

WordLive Classic

Pray, read, reflect and respond. Classic is the simple, practical way to develop your relationship with God, with additional material help you go deeper and study the background to the Bible passage. Create your classic God moment anytime, anyplace, anywhere. Try it now


alt.wordlive

alt.wordLive

Throwing a large rock into the still waters of the quiet time. Sketches, animations, meditations, music, blogs, vlogs and pods - anything goes as we journey together. Social and topical, funny and serious, alt is your conversation with God. What do you want to say today?


WordLive Lectio

WordLive Lectio

A space just for you, the Bible and God. Lectio Divina is Latin for divine reading, a traditional way of Bible reading and prayer to help communion with God. We provide the space and sound, you provide the time. God provides the inspiration. Enter the moment

    No middle ground here: pay the most careful attention or drift away.

    #Mainpoint Father forgive me when I drift and forget your sacrifice for me. Send your spirit to show me the way back to the right path.

    'What evidence is there in your own life, and in your church, that the gospel message of Jesus is true and powerful? If you find that question difficult to answer, could it be because you or your church have begun to drift?’' Such powerful questions from Tom Wright...if I'd really thought these through some years back, perhaps my relationship with God would've changed earlier...I pray that many people would think them through now and consider change sooner rather than later.

    Lord, help me to see the unseen, to be more aware of the ways you serve me. And, even when I don't see, help me to be always thankful, knowing that your angels are here.
