14 days! {an app update}

We have exactly 2 weeks — fourteen days — left in our SheReadsTruth Kickstarter campaign

Last night I dreamed we launched the SheReadsTruth app with a beautiful array of Bible translations to choose from. It was pure bliss, that image of you all picking up your phones, scrolling down to your favorite translation and clicking to read words written straight from the heart of God to the heart of you.

This is our dream (and yours!), but it is only a small part of the vision God has given as He has molds this community into something revolutionary.

Did you know you are revolutionaries? 

You are.
You are tens of thousands of women who come together from opposite ends of the neighborhood, the country, the ocean.
You are women with all different colors of skin and hair and eyes, with different names and different laughs.
You are Sisters holding hands through a computer screen, disagreeing on the small things but holding fast to The Only Thing.
You are daughters who want a relationship with your Heavenly Father that goes wider and deeper than mere formality.
You are women who long for beauty to come from within, for your words to echo grace, for your hands to do what is just and merciful and kind.
You are warriors who pray for women you’ve never met, families you’ll never see, jobs and marriages and Very Hard Things you could easily ignore but you don’t.
You are choosing to show up, to be real, to be transformed.

What you are doing here is revolutionary.
The way you love each other and look for God and lift each other up? It is revolutionary. 

This revolution is not just affecting you. It is changing your friends and your families. It is changing the lives of the strangers you meet and the work you do. The Living Word is alive in you and that changes everything. 

You see, this app is not just an app.
It is a step of faith,
the next step in a journey
on a long, glory-filled road,
a road that points all who walk it
to Jesus.

This app is the next step toward a community where more women are welcomed just as they are, wherever they are, through big open doors and into the pages of scripture every single day. A community built not around a web site, but around Jesus — with rooms to encourage and pray for one another. A community that offers smaller groups for deeper study. A community that facilitates connections to local churches where you can go and grow and be known in your everyday real life. A community that offers resources you can hold in your hand and use to color your desk and your walls and your life with Truth at every turn. A community to help equip your groups and your families and your real-life friends to study God’s word together. This app is just a tiny part of the vision God has given this community.

We have 14 days left in our Kickstarter campaign.

We have already funded the iOS app (YAY!!) and we are only $7,000 away from funding the Android app (Yippee!!!).

And friends, we are a mere $22,000 away from hosting Evening of Truth — a FREE, three-hour Virtual Conference for all our backers. Yes, ALL!! No longer only for backers tier 3 and up, this conference will be for every single one of you who have donated. We want to worship with you and we want all of you to hear from our wonderful, talented musicians and speakers!

Click here and join us in a Truth revolution.
We can’t do any of this without you.

    This is really a nice thing that I got to read in first paragraph . But is this a fact or irony created to entertain the people ?

    I have a question about my donation, & I figured this would be a good place … I made my donation within your first week of launching the Kickstarter Campgain (yay! I was – still am – so excited!) but it hasn't come out of my account yet. When do the funds get pulled – is it the last day of the campaign? I'm sure it's probably mentioned somewhere in the fine print, but I couldn't seem to find it. Thanks!

    I wish I could help financially, but I am unable to this month.
    However, my prayers will be with your campaign!

  5. Love this – "You are women who long for beauty to come from within, for your words to echo grace, for your hands to do what is just and merciful and kind." Yes, Lord…let that be our heart!

    This community is a beautiful thing, and I cannot wait to see it grow..!

    Amen. God will continue to make greatness happens in this group because of our faith and heart and most of all His love for us.. blessings Amanda and Rachael to the entire SRT community as well.

    I recently was introduced to the online community of Hello Mornings which has small groups of local (or non-local) women encouraging each other online. This makes so much sense to me and it sounds like the SRT app may have this too from your description above. Is this correct? This would be an amazing addition to my morning SRT readings and help me get out of bed just knowing my sisters are doing the same thing.

      hi AG! This type of small-group accountability is definitely on our radar for features we'd love to add to the She Reads Truth experience in the future. Glad to hear that it is something that interests you!
