Welcome to Press Bible’s new Blog! I hope everyone is having a great 2014 so far.
I’ll be honest, writing a blog is challenging for me, because the blogosphere is already a crowded space, but I guess so is the Bible app market. I believe that God will bring some people to read this and hopefully they will be inspired. This blog won’t just be about product updates, asking for re-tweets, or begging for followers, but will be a platform to communicate what Press Bible stands for.
Press Bible is something really special because of the journey God’s brought me through. I’m 23, and I started working on this when I was 21. The road has been tiresome, especially for someone that felt entitled to immediate success, but it has been the best thing I have ever experienced.
So what makes a long journey worth it?
Have you ever seen the future?
Not in a creepy, “I know when the worlds going end” type of way, but that you somehow understand how the world is going to work in 5 years kind of way.
Well that’s what the idea of Press Bible was like for me.
It’s the way people will engage with the Bible. It’s not about technology; it’s about the way humans will consume information.
Press Bible is a God-given idea that helps people dive deeper in the Bible, and maybe even compels someone to pick it up for the first time. Knowing these possibilities makes any long workweek worth it.
Has God given you a 5-year-in-the-making idea—an idea that may take years to develop? Maybe it’s not an idea for a product but maybe a specific people group that you feel passionate for. Maybe it’s a master’s degree, finishing school, learning a new skill, or starting some kind of organization.
Whatever it is, God has allowed & equipped us to carry this out. May you embrace the long road and cling to the fact that you will be a part of impacting a human life. Finally, may you cling to the Idea Originator, who is our Lord Jesus Christ.
“Forever, O Lord, your word is firmly fixed in the heavens. Your faithfulness endures to all generations; you have established the earth, and it stands fast.”
Psalm 119:89-90 (ESV)
