New Proverbs Guides & TTW Backpacks!

New Proverbs! 

Barry and I try to look smart.

Okay, so the Proverbs are old, but the wisdom is timeless and our audio guides through the book of Proverbs are brand new. I'm back in the studio recording all new audio guides, and I've invited several guests to join me: Jonathan Ferguson, Peyton Jones, Barry Waters (don't let the Welsh accent fool you*), Andrea Langham (soon everyone will know that my wife is in fact smarter than I am), and more friends are back with me for a lively discussion as we dig through the deep wisdom found in this fantastic book. Chapters 1-9 are up now (4-9 are the new ones), and we'll be adding more daily over the next couple weeks. To hear them, you can subscribe to the Proverbs plan, or just navigate your Bible to Proverbs and listen. 

Thanks Chapter Sponsors! 

Andrea & Bethany bring the wisdom.

We want to thank our Sponsor-a- Chapter donors for making the new Proverbs series possible. Our productions costs are about $150 per chapter, and generous donors are making it possible for us to move forward on our mission to provide original, outstanding, and free audio guides for every chapter in the Bible. And speaking of donors...

App Update: Landscape + iPhoneX Fix

Hello TTW!  We've got a new update ready for you in the App Store, with a some helpful improvements and a very important fix for the iPhone X. To get it, just open the App Store, search for Through the Word, and tap the Update button. The latest update is version 2.0.10.  We're constantly making improvements and adding features, so check for those often, or you can set your phone to check for updates automatically.

Landscape Mode for Tablets! By popular demand, the new update allows you to turn your device to the side and use the app in landscape mode! While phone users may not find the new layout ideal (we still need to mod the graphic elements), this one's really for tablet users. Now you can prop it up, and type your journal on your keyboard!

To donate, tap here - or use the donate button in the app, and make sure the Mogiv site has your current address.

For all of you iPhone X users, we want to apologize for the graphics issue. It's resolved now, but it was a real pain for the last couple weeks. We actually made the fix as soon as it was reported, but ran into a totally separate issue with the compiler software. The software company was unresponsive, and left a bunch of developers hanging for several weeks. I know, I know - "you lost me at compiler," but suffice it to say it was a technical pain in the iPhone. But we persevered, reconfigured the app to use another compiler, and now we're back on track!

That's all for now. More updates and improvements to come!

On the Journey,

Donate in May - Get a TTW Backpack!!

Hello TTW Friends! You know the old saying, April showers bring May backpacks. Okay, so maybe that's not a saying. But right now May donors get TTW backpacks, and that's pretty good too. We're raising funds for the all new TTW Website 2.0, and to thank all of you who donate, we're sending out a brand new Through the Word backpack for every donation of any amount in the month of May! How cool is that? All you have to do is donate any amount here, and we'll send you one! Here's the details:

Snazzy new backpack you got there partner.

The TTW Pack: The backpacks are the drawstring kind - nice and light, with an extra zipper pouch. They're great for carrying around a few extra items, and for telling lots of people about your favorite app! All you have to do is donate any amount in May - make sure we have your correct address - and will send it out to you.

TTW Website 2.0: We're raising funds to update the TTW website (throughtheword.org) so it will look and function like the new TTW 2.0 app. This is big! The new website will allow you to login to your TTW from any computer or mobile device, so you can use the app one day and a computer the next - and keep your progress and journals. You'll have the whole keyboard to type a journal, and there's one more thing that will be a game-changer for this ministry.

The Best Part: The TTW Website 2.0 will enable us to create a URL link for every chapter and every audio guide. That means that any time you use the Connect step, you'll be able to share a direct link to the audio guide that you just heard. That's a big deal. It means that your friends can listen to a message you liked without downloading the whole app. The new website will finally be mobile friendly, so they can click a link on mobile or laptop and go right to the audio and chapter you shared. We've been wanting this for a long time! Basically it equips you to reach your world - through the Word!

We're very excited about this. We're still improving the app (an iPhone X fix is coming soon!), but the website is our next big priority. There's still a bunch of design and programming ahead for us, so we're raising funds now and planning to launch the new website this summer. If you'd like to give, you can use this link: https://app.mogiv.com/give/?oid=ttw or tap the donate button anytime on the app's main menu.

You can also donate by check at:
Through the Word
PO Box 303
Westminster, CA 92684

The backpack is free, and it's our way of saying thanks for making this amazing ministry possible. We love what get to do! We thank you and we thank God for you!

In Christ,
Pastor Kris
