A Quick Tutorial

Over the course of this challenge, each post will house a link into that day's Scripture reading at biblegateway.com. There are a few fun things that you can play with at Bible Gateway, and I wanted to take a post to share them with you. When you click on that day's link, you will see a screen similar to this one:


It will already have the passage set up for you to read in the NIV translation. If you want to read another translation, simply use the drop down icon in the box beside the UPDATE button to select a different translation and click UPDATE.


There are several different options to choose from, including (but not limited to) NIV, NLT, NASB, KJV NKJV, ESV, CEV, The Message, NCV and more. Feel free to use more than one translation as it will enrich your reading experience greatly. Additionally, you can utilize a commentary on the selected passage by clicking on the button circled in the picture below.


You can also have the passage read to you by using the audio bible button:


So there you go. There are more bells and whistles, but I'll let you discover those on your own.
