YouVersion Presented at Vatican

Bobby Gruenewald meets with Pope Francis YouVersion's founder, Bobby Gruenewald, recently had the opportunity to meet Pope Francis and give him an iPhone with the Bible App and the Bible App for Kids on it. His visit also included meetings with other leaders at the Vatican to discuss practical ways we can work together to further Bible engagement around the world. We're excited to see how this helps more people spend more time in the Bible!
