We’re excited to announce something that will make it even easier for you to make Bible reading a habit in 2013: the NIV Bible, available for download in the Bible Gateway app!

Starting on January 1 and for a limited time, you’ll be able to download the full text of the NIV onto your mobile device using the Bible Gateway app. The NIV download will coincide exactly with the launch of our new Once-a-Day Bible Promises devotional, and we hope it’ll help you get into the habit of daily Scripture reading. For technical reasons, the NIV download will only be available for users of the iOS app (sorry, Android users!). Zondervan, in cooperation with Biblica, are to thank for providing this short-time free download of the NIV in the Bible Gateway app.

If you don’t yet have the Bible Gateway app, download it for free for iPad, iPhone, Android phones, and Kindle Fire and watch for the NIV download to become available on January 1!
