6 FREE E-Resources for a New Christian

Are you a new Christian?

Welcome to the family.  On behalf of all of us let me say, we are rejoicing with the angels in heaven over your return to our Father!

Some of you have grown up in Christian families, some of you have come from the world.  You are young and old, wise and naive, male and female but what all baby Christians have in common is a longing for the Word. 

So let's dive into 6 (FREE!) resources that you can use to get started in your walk with God. 

Free Bibles:

I hope you are satisfied with the Bible you have at home, however if you haven't invested in one yet or are looking for something a little different, let me offer some free suggestions to get you started today. 

BibleHub: There is no app to download and no fees to get more services. You won't need to give your email or create a log-in. This is a straightforward online Bible search engine. You can read in your favorite version, compare between two versions and find the scripture your friend was talking about even if you can only remember 3 words. 

YouVersion: YouVersion has two distinct apps both of which are installed on my devices.  For adults it has the Bible App which offers the Bible for free in over 1,000 languages.  For kids there is the  Bible App for Kids with 41 different stories that are perfect for preschoolers through early elementary.  

Olive Tree: This is the app my husband has on every device he owns. It is searchable and cross-referenced even offline!  It DOES have in-app purchases but you can access (as of today) the NIV, ESV and NKJV versions for free. 

Educational YouTube: 

When you are first getting started sometimes reading isn't the way to go.  You want to HEAR the Word of God. YouTube has a number of both individual YouTubers as well as larger outfits putting forward good material to help you grow.  Let me recommend a few!

World Video Bible School: This LARGE collection of videos covers almost any topic you might want to talk about in regards to the Bible in a straightforward and non-denominational way. The lessons are lecture style.   I would recommend starting here with the video entitled "How To Begin Reading The Bible."

Questions Over Coffee: On a much smaller scale, this new YouTuber is trying to answer the basic questions that non-Christians and young Christians ask.  He is quick to respond and would love for you to leave a question in the comments.  (I also think he is also a handsome fellow as he is my husband!)

The Bible Project: This animated project is a quick but excellent overview of Bible books and themes.  This will appeal to young people and to anyone who enjoys educational YouTube. 

I'd love to know more about the resources you are looking for.  Leave me a comment and I'll help you find what you need!
