Today’s bread

Today

This is the verse Manna opens with today. It changes at midnight where you are, and everyone reading that day meets the same words, in the edition they chose.

Set a gentle reminder and it comes to you at the hour you pick. With Manna Plus it waits on your Home Screen and Lock Screen too.

Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.
Romans 13:8 · WEB

Guided studies

Sixteen studies, one day at a time.

Original studies in three collections, 108 days in all. Each day takes five to fifteen minutes: a passage, a reflection, a word study, pointers into the commentaries, three questions to sit with, a practice and a prayer.

The first day of every study is free. The rest come with Manna Plus.
