Stories

Updated 1 month ago by Jillian Galley

The stories selected for the Bible App for Kids were chosen in an effort to create a digital storybook that explores the larger narrative of the Bible. The goal is to help children understand the major concepts explained through scripture.

How to Navigate Through a Story

Stories are a fun way for kids to interact with Bible stories and include verses and activities.

The text used in the stories found in the Bible App for Kids does not come from a specific Bible translation, but was written by our partners at OneHope to help create a digital storybook that explores the larger narrative of the Bible. For more information on the ministry of OneHope, please visit http://onehope.net.
