When you have a real question about faith or life and your first instinct is to ask a chat box, My Shepherd gives you a Scripture-grounded place to take it instead of the open internet.^1
My Shepherd is a free Bible AI chat app that answers questions by drawing directly from the King James Version. Ask anything in plain language and it responds with a thoughtful, faith-centered answer plus expandable scripture cards showing the actual verses, along with suggested follow-ups and a "Go Deeper" option to keep studying.^2
Built for the "ChatGPT generation" and especially younger users, My Shepherd is designed to point people back to God's Word rather than to cultural trends or personal opinion. It draws on the public-domain KJV, and it consistently redirects users toward prayer, their pastor, and their local church rather than positioning itself as a replacement for real Christian community.^1
The app is operated by Bar Above LLC, a small software studio based in Austin, Texas, founded by Ryan Armstrong — a believer, developer, husband, and dad. My Shepherd is the studio's first product, and Armstrong's Instagram (@ry_strong5) is openly tied to the project with the tagline "All questions answered by scripture."^3
