About the app
Summary · not an editor reviewFirst 5 is a daily Bible study app from Proverbs 31 Ministries that encourages users to give the first five minutes of their day to Scripture before distractions take over. Each day, the app provides a short teaching that walks through the Bible book-by-book, paired with a key verse, a reflection prompt called "My Moment," and a community comment section where users can share what God is teaching them.
The app is primarily aimed at women seeking consistent, structured engagement with the Bible. Features include note-taking, highlighting, reminders, an integrated Bible search tool, and group discussion. Study plans are free within the app, though optional printed companion guides are sold separately for those who want deeper study material.
Common questions
Yes. The entire daily study and teaching are free. Only optional printed companion study guides cost money, and they aren't needed to use the app.
No. The Scripture study works for anyone, but the writing, examples, and community are geared toward women, so male readers should know the voice going in.
The core Start Here teaching takes about five minutes; an optional deeper study guide adds roughly ten to fifteen more.
First 5 moves through a current study together as a community, releasing one day at a time, though you can catch up on missed days in the calendar.
It's produced by Proverbs 31 Ministries, a long-standing Christian teaching organization known for its women's Bible studies and writers.
