Android: Verse Images

When God’s Word touches your heart, capture the moment with a Verse Image. A Verse Image is simply Bible text placed on top of a picture. Verse Images are easy to make, and fun to share.

Create a Verse Image

1. Select the Bible tab if it hasn’t been selected already.
2. Locate the Bible verse(s) you want to turn into an image.
   Keep in mind: the more verse(s) you select, the smaller the text will be in your final image.
3. Select each Bible verse you want in your image. Dotted underlines appear underneath each verse you select.
4. Select Image from the options.
5. Select one of the stock photos or any photo on your device as the background of your Verse Image.
   Friends can see images made with stock photos as backgrounds on the Community Feed. However, images made with your photos aren’t visible.
