Description

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” – John Adams

THE HISTORY YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN TAUGHT
The Founders’ Bible Digital App is not only a robust Bible study app with multiple Bible translations available, but it also contains the history that you have never been taught in school; that was sadly, intentionally removed. It also contains some of the most inspiring truth that will shed a significant amount of light and wisdom on the major issues facing us today, and what we can and must do. What we have included in The Founders’ Bible Digital App (Free Version) is what we believe are some of the “best of the best” articles, the most relevant, the essentials list, an emergency action pack of what you need to know … about the country, how it was meant to work, the history that brought us here, the purpose and passion behind it all, the incredible power of God’s Word and how it has shaped this nation more than anything else.

MODERN DAY GENEVA BIBLE
With over 1000+ pages of culturally relevant articles, insightful Biblical commentary, and some of the most inspiring history, The Founders’ Bible tells the epic saga of our true, forgotten history and the deep spiritual heritage behind the founding of America. The subjects covered by the articles inserted throughout help to ask and answer some of the most important questions today, wrestling with the most relevant issues facing our culture, providing insight from those who helped architect the foundations of this great nation, as well as apply timeless truth and wisdom from the Scripture. For many, The Founder’ Bible could be likened to “a modern day Geneva Bible for this generation.” It is your history, foundations of government, and the Bible all integrated into one amazing resource.

SIGNATURE HISTORIAN
The Founders’ Bible is signature historian David Barton’s most significant life’s work. He is one of the premiere constitutional historians of our day with a private library containing over 100,000 original source documents from the Founding Era, one of the largest private collections in the nation. His exhaustive research has rendered him an expert in historical and constitutional issues, serving as a consultant to state and federal legislators, participating in several cases at the Supreme Court, involved in the development of the History/Social Studies standards for numerous states, and helping to produce history textbooks now used in schools across the nation. David is listed by Time Magazine as one of, “The 25 Most Influential Evangelicals in America.” Accordingly, he has been described as “America’s historian.”

ARTWORK IN FULL ILLUSTRATION MODE
If a picture can say a thousand words, the artwork throughout speaks volumes—allowing the history and content to come to life conveying a sense of the look and feel, the emotions of the unfolding drama. Each one of the articles has been beautifully designed throughout, featuring original artwork by master illustrator and oil painter, C. Michael Dudash, along with hundreds of other historical paintings and sketches.

OFFLINE BIBLE STUDY
Read and study whether you’re connected or not. Your library, notes, highlights and all of the app features are stored on your device so that you have full functionality when you are offline or in airplane mode.

CLOUD SYNC
Sync your Bible study resources, highlights, notes, etc. between all your devices.

SIDE-BY-SIDE STUDY
The split window feature allows you to create your own customized parallel Bible for translation comparison or to have the Articles in one pane and the Bible in the other for quick reference.

IMMERSIVE BIBLE STUDY
The app has an extensive library of Bibles, commentaries, dictionaries and many other useful Bible Study resources along with a powerful suite of features and study tools.

Awesome!!

Eternal thanks for The Founders’ Bible - Print & Digital !!! I have BOTH now, but did not realize the digital version was available until this weekend. Print edition is beautiful and awesome, but better for a coffee table to share with others there, or at least needs to be in one spot due to it’s weight. But I purchased the DIGITAL version and JUST NOW got it downloaded onto my iPad & iPhone. It’s AWESOME, and now I can take it with me and read it anywhere. (Not to mention it’s easier on my eyeballs digitally even if I have the printed copy right beside me!) The beautiful artwork in the articles is FULLY accessible, yet all the words are duplicated in a separate frame which comes up first where the font can be fully adjusted to each individual’s desire, making all the commentary fully readable. This is GREAT! Also, I believe the digital version makes all the features more accessible and retrievable than the print copy, although I’m thrilled to have BOTH. Please tell everyone involved with all aspects of this project a hearty “THANK YOU”! (And I LOVE that I can recommend the FREE APP to friends to get a taste of it before they purchase the full version! The free version has a LOT - about 10% of the full version!) Thank you!!!

So far so good! Just one teeny thing...

I gave a hard copy of this Bible as a gift to my husband 2 years ago and only now found the app for myself! In beginning to use it, I am excited by the features and abilities this app holds as a great study tool and reference. Thank you for this app!
Not to be obsessive, however, as I was reading the introduction to Exodus, I noticed two of the key verses are missing a key word: the word “Lord” from the chapter 15 and chapter 33 verses that are quoted there. Just wanted to let you know.

What a wealth of Information!

This is a wonderful app. I stumbled across it while searching for a Bible commentary, and I have been riveted by the rich history of my homeland: things we were never taught in school.

David Barton did all the heavy lifting of tireless research; as an American it’s now my job to know my heritage.

Thank you.
