I grew up in church, but never actually knew Christ.
That difference didn't matter much to me until my mom and dad were both diagnosed with terminal cancer. I went looking for answers everywhere: books, philosophy, the gym, anything that would keep me busy. None of it did. I started coming back to church, still with one foot in and one foot out.
Then I got cancer myself.
You can't stay in the middle after that and I gave my life to Christ in 2022.
Somewhere in that stretch I noticed something small. My friends and I kept setting scripture as our phone wallpapers. It's the screen you look at a hundred times a day. But every app built for it was cluttered, or ugly, or trying to sell me something on the way in.
So I built the one I wanted, completely self-funded. Beautiful, quiet and simple. I pray this app serves you and your community as much as it does for me.
