Apps

YouVersion  - It's on my phone. There's a daily verse, loads of reading plans, & of course the entire Bible in a variety of translations. Bonus, you can also create Bible verse images! d365  - A devotion every day, 365 days a year. Broken into 5 easy parts. Echo  - Forget to pray? There's an app for that too. Echo is clean & simple. From their website, "Echo's number one goal is to help people pray. Whether it be to simply keep track of prayer requests, give space to engage with God, or simply help remind people to pray... Echo is a tool to help Christ-followers engage with God." Insight Timer  - Meditation, or mindfulness, is a practice popular around the world. The benefits are far beyond spiritual. Clear your mind, relieve stress, you name it. Personally, I just like to sit in God's presence & be still.

(i.e. do you consider your values in decision making, things you are involved in, etc.)   -Why is it so easy for us to get worked up about something that doesn’t really matter? What  is  worth arguing about? How do arguments affect our rel...
