Want to share the Bible with friends who have never opened one? Rava makes it as simple as pressing play. Built by the same nonprofit team behind Waha, Rava is a group-centric Discovery Bible Study app designed for seekers, curious friends, and new believers to discover God's story together, with no preparation or teaching experience required.^1
Rava walks groups through curated topics covering the story of creation, how sin entered the world, the penalty of sin, God's plan to redeem mankind, and God's vision to change the world.^1 The app reads Scripture passages and discussion questions aloud, so a facilitator only needs to gather a few friends, press play, and discuss. Lessons are available for offline download, data is encrypted, and a security mode helps protect believers in sensitive regions.^2
Rava is completely free with no ads, funded by donor support for the Waha nonprofit, a team of cross-cultural disciple makers based in Washington state.^3 The shared Waha platform is now used by 104,488 disciple makers in over 185 countries across 63 languages.^3 While the main Waha app focuses on the fuller discipleship journey, including its Disciple Making Course, Rava is purpose-built as a front door, an inviting, low-barrier way to introduce anyone to God's Word in community.^4
