New app pairs daily Bible reading with commentary from the early church fathers

A new app delivers daily devotionals drawn from the early church fathers, showing how historic Christian texts are being adapted for daily digital use.

A new app called 365 dagen kerkvaders offers a daily Bible reading paired with writings from the early church fathers, structured for every day of the year. The format follows a familiar pattern in Christian media: devotional content delivered through a mobile app rather than print or broadcast. For Christian publishers and organisations, it is another example of historic theological material being repackaged for daily digital consumption. It also raises a practical question for the sector about how older Christian writing is curated, translated and presented for a contemporary audience.
