Looking for a daily devotional with real depth that you can take anywhere? Every Day with Jesus brings over 60 years of trusted Bible teaching to your phone — completely free.^1
Started in 1965 when Welsh minister Selwyn Hughes began writing postcards to help his congregation study the Bible, Every Day with Jesus grew into one of the most widely read Christian devotionals in the world, reaching an estimated two million readers at its peak.^2 The app launched on 1 January 2024, and within its first year over 25,000 people across 137 countries had downloaded it.^2 You can choose between Selwyn Hughes' classic devotional track — drawing on decades of wisdom from a man who walked closely with God through deep personal loss — or explore fresh perspectives from contemporary contributors. Each day's reading includes audio so you can listen on the go, a built-in journal for personal reflection, and easy sharing with friends.^3
Every Day with Jesus is published by Waverley Abbey Trust (formerly Crusade for World Revival / CWR), a UK-based Christian charity founded by Selwyn Hughes in 1965. The ministry is now partnered with 24-7 Prayer International on the historic Waverley Abbey estate in Surrey, England — one of the oldest Christian sites in Britain, dedicated for prayer in 688 AD.^4 Over 24,000 printed copies of the devotional are still sent into UK prisons each year.^2
Why Christians Love It"As a busy mum, my quiet time with God had become almost non-existent. I was looking for a daily devotional that was short but still had great depth. This app is the best I have found… it helps me draw near to God, and ignites the desire to draw closer still. An answer to prayer."^2
"Absolutely superb upgrade from the faithful little books I've been using for many years… I'm really enjoying using the audio functionality. This is a must for Christians, no matter where they are on their journey." — Sharon^3
"This app gives you a choice of which meditation you can follow: contemporary writers or, in the 'classic' section, words of wisdom and grace from the founder of CWR, Selwyn Hughes… This app may just change your life for the better."^3
