Much of our daily lives can be divided into two categories, work and play.

Simply put, that is where our life and our legacy take place.

This is a podcast all about learning to work and play well, which leads to a healthy soul and a fulfilling

Every January, people set a goal to read through the Bible, but most don't make it very far.

Reading asks you to sit down, carve

out quiet time, and stay focused. That can be tough in the middle of real life. That's why the

Dwell Audio Bible app was created. With Dwell, you don't have to wait for the perfect quiet

moment. You can listen to God's word while you drive, while you walk, even while you do chores.

Instead of struggling to fit Bible reading into your schedule, Dwell, let Scripture come with you.

And it works. Every year, thousands of people actually finish a Bible in a year plan because they can

listen on Dwell. One of the most loved is Tara Lee Cobble's

connect the dots explaining the harder parts and help you see how every passage points back to God.

It's like being guided through the Bible by a trusted friend. And that's just one option. Dwell offers

several Bible into your plans to match how you want to journey through scripture, whether by theme,

by story, or by order of the books themselves. So if you've struggled to keep your Bible reading
