The Word One to One is a free way to sit with a friend and read what the Bible says about Jesus.^1 The app walks through John's Gospel and Acts in short episodes, one verse at a time, with notes that explain the meaning and give you something to talk about.^5 The same guided walk-through is available as books you can download online for free or buy in print.^2
Richard Borgonon began the resource in London in 2007, jotting notes on John's Gospel on a napkin during a meal with a friend.^3 It grew from those notes into books, a website, and an app used in over 80 countries, made by Make Known, a UK charity that builds simple tools for everyday Bible sharing.^3
Each episode keeps a relaxed tone, then adds Q&A notes, maps, historical background, and a short summary so any Christian can open Scripture with a guest and let the text lead.^2 The app is free on iPhone and Android.^6 Spanish, German, and Ukrainian editions are in the app, with further translations available as downloads or through partners.^8
