Best Bible Apps for Blackberry Devices (Torch - Storm - Bold)

The Christian does well to have the scriptures written on his or her heart, so he can give a ready answer for his faith, but not that alone, the word of God gives wisdom encouragement and guidance in ways that no other book can. However, with our busy lifestyles we may find it difficult to spend time perusing the leaves of an actual bible or carrying it around for that matter.  Here are some great Blackberry bible apps that you can use to ensure that you always have the ‘word’ wherever you and your mobile phone go.

This Blackberry bible app was specifically designed for touch screen Blackberry phones, and therefore is makes navigating the app a lot quicker and convenient. AcroBible KJV, despite what’s its name suggest, offers more versions than just the KJV. The developer offers free downloads for the Darby, ASV, WEB, AA, RVA, and the Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary.

Once you have the app downloaded and installed you can: search the bible for keywords including exact match searches, add study notes, and highlight verses of interest. AcroBible KJV costs $4.99.

Olive Tree bible software is one of the most often downloaded and used mobile bible software. It is popular because of the efficient way it allows the user to navigate and use the application. For example, it only takes 3 clicks to reach a verse; once you get there you can continue reading for many chapters by just scrolling through without the need to click to advance to the next chapter or verse.

BibleReader is simply a bible navigation tool, so you will need to install the versions that you want. Fortunately, there are quite a few free translations that Olive Tree makes available to BibleReader users. They include:

• Darby s Translation
• New English Translation - NETBible
• Modern King James Version - MKJV
• American Standard Version - ASV

• Young s Literal Translation
• Weymouth New Testament
• NIV
• Amplified bibles
• NKJV

This application was developed by Micro Mobile Software to provide easy and convenient navigation of the word of God. The app covers all the basics including creating annotations, notes, and highlights of your favorite verses and chapters. If you would want more than just a King James Version you will have to look elsewhere though, as this is a KJV only app. The app costs $2.99.

It is the Holy Spirit that leads into all truth, but sometimes we need a little help or a different perspective on a particular text. Got Questions has over 1800 answers to the most frequently asked bible questions. The resource is easy to find and navigate given that the questions are organized by topic, and searchable with the built-in search tool.

Users of this app need to be aware that questions are answered by volunteers of the Got Questions Ministries, so the interpretation of particular scriptures may not be in accordance with scripture on a whole, or your beliefs/denomination in particular. The app is free to download and use. 

If you enjoy reading snippets, or short words of wisdom from the bible, without having to read an entire chapter, or do an in depth study this could be the app for you. Best Bible Quotes serves up some of the more power and favorite text from the scriptures to empower you. This app is actually a series (I to IV), which means that you will have to purchase each separately. The cost of each is $2.99.

The great thing about bible apps for Blackberry devices is that you can conveniently carry the word wherever you go. Thus enabling you to do a quick study, quickly find a reference text or simply draw on the words of God when you need to. There are quite a few bible Blackberry apps to choose from, but Olive Tree’s solutions often tops the pack of competitors with its sound basic offerings and a large list of resources (over 200); it is truly on of the best Blackberry bible apps available.
