Looking for solid Christian reading without the paywall? The Free Christian eBook Reader puts a carefully curated library of Christian living and Bible study books right in your pocket — completely free, with no ads, no hidden charges, and no account required.^1
Part of the Cornerstone internet ministry, this app connects you to a growing collection of ebooks, audiobooks, and Bible translations available in PDF, ePub, and Mobi formats. Topics span the full breadth of the Christian life: from faith and prayer to courage, generosity, and understanding the Scriptures. Many of the books are written by R. Herbert, a prolific author whose works on practical Christian living have reached hundreds of thousands of readers worldwide.^2
Built by a volunteer team of scholars, pastors, and experienced Christians from various denominational backgrounds, the Cornerstone ministry operates several interconnected sites — including free Bible courses at CornerstoneCourses.org and devotional content at TacticalChristianity.org. Their guiding verse says it all: "...so that we may understand what God has freely given us" (1 Corinthians 2:12).^3
The ministry has also been expanding its reach globally, translating many of its ebooks into Nepali and Hindi — serving hundreds of millions of people in the Indian Subcontinent who may lack access to Christian literature in their native language.^4 A growing podcast library offers short summaries and discussions of the books for listeners on the go, and roughly twenty titles are now available as full audiobooks as well.^5
Why Christians Love It:
"I am thrilled that this app is available - not only for free, but also that all the books on it are free, too. App works smoothly — with no annoying ads — and has content that should appeal to many people. A+++ app!"^6
"The books have helped me a great deal. Thank you for making them available!"^1
The app is currently available on Android only. The website recommends Google Play Books, Kobo, or FBReader for iOS users who want to read their free ebooks on non-Android devices.^7
