Ember: Scripture & Prayer

5

Scripture

You have 3 commercials every one quiz I have got to see what the apps really is for all the add pop ups, spending more time viewing adds and trying to get out of them more than anything.

I Love it tests our knowledge of the Bible with simple questions about the Bible, and it helps to brush up on what I know/don’t know and educated me on what I should know about it in the simplest of ways! Biblical!

My unassuming mom downloaded this app as a good way to stay focused on God throughout the day, but it quickly spiraled down from there on. It consistently adds comments after completing a quizzes like “good job, God is so proud of you!” and “You’ll have good luck for seven days”, which is the complete opposite of the Gospel of love that God tells us of in the Bible—that although our sin (doing bad things) and its penalty, death, separates us from God, who is eternally perfect, holy and just, He loved us too much to watch us suffer and sent His very own Son, Jesus, down to Earth as a human, to live the perfect sinless life and then sacrifice Himself on a cross to take on our sins’ punishment, death, so that we could be forgiven. Jesus then rose three days later defeating death and sin so that we might be clothed in His own righteousness and have an eternal relationship with God, meaning even after we die on Earth, we go to heaven and continue in relationship with Him eternally, no longer having to earn it by our own good works, which we couldn’t do because we were already tainted by sin, making us unable to gain righteousness on our own. Believing in Jesus is our only way to right-standing and relationship with God (that’s it, no believing plus works, JUST believing that His sacrifice was enough), God’s love demonstrated as faithful and unconditional despite our unfaithfulness to Him; this is the Gospel. This app however, preaches a false gospel through sly comments and manipulations that God’s love is conditional, and we must earn His adoration and affection. However, His adoration and affection was already ours from the start simply because we are His own beautiful creation, this unconditional and faithful love exemplified in His decision to send Jesus to bridge that gap between us and Him. All that’s to say I don’t recommend this app-however, I do recommend reading the Bible (I really like the CSB translation as I find it easy to read and reads like a book), as well as the Bible app, as it has an online version of the Bible as well as devotional plans that also include video plans. God bless and I hope this review was helpful!

Love it

Ember Scripture and Prayer has become such a meaningful part of my daily routine. In a world that often feels rushed and overwhelming, this app creates a peaceful space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with God through scripture and prayer. The design is calming and easy to use, but what truly sets Ember apart is the way it encourages genuine spiritual growth rather than just checking off a devotional habit. The scripture selections are thoughtful and uplifting, and the guided prayers feel personal, comforting, and deeply encouraging. I love how the app helps me stay grounded throughout the day, whether I have five quiet minutes in the morning or need encouragement during difficult moments. What makes Ember special is that it feels intentional and heartfelt. It’s not just another app—it feels like a companion for faith, reflection, and peace. I’m incredibly grateful for the care and purpose behind it, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to strengthen their prayer life and spend more meaningful time in scripture.

I really like this Bible app is very well organized

Great app I highly suggest it !

I downloaded App, less than 5 minutes later, I deleted it. I could not enjoy the app because ads kept popping up.

Looks biblical
