Four ways to play

However you study, however you gather.

Solo, with the people next to you, with the room down the hall — or built around any topic you choose.

01


Solo

Just you and Scripture.

Open the app, pick a topic, and run a round at your own pace. The verse and a short commentary land after every answer.

  • One player, one device
  • A round in five to ten minutes
  • Verse + commentary on every question

02


Together

Pass-and-play, two to eight.

One phone, taking turns, scores tracked for everyone in the room. Made for family devotionals, road trips, and small groups.

  • Two to eight players on one device
  • Names, scores, and turn order tracked
  • Mixed difficulty across the round

03


Multiplayer

A room for everyone, anywhere.

Host a room, share the link, and play with friends, classes, or your whole congregation. Same questions, individual phones, shared leaderboard.

  • Each player on their own phone
  • Five-character room code + invite link
  • Live leaderboard with per-question review

04


Custom

Your topic. Your verse. Your round.

Type any topic, verse, book, or theme — Kerygma builds the round around it. Made for sermons, study groups, or that one chapter you keep coming back to.

  • Free-text input — anything you want
  • Questions sourced from your topic
  • Works with Solo, Together, or Multiplayer

A note from the maker

I built Kerygma over six months because I wanted a quiet way to spend a few minutes a day with Scripture — not another habit-tracker, not a streak machine, not something engineered for engagement. Just questions, the verse, and a short commentary. If it turns out to be useful to you, that's all I hoped for.

Christian Founder, Kerygma

Common questions

A few things people ask.

Is my data private?

No account and no ads, and nothing follows you across other apps or websites. Your progress is kept under a random number, not your name, so it can move to a new phone. We count which features are used, to know what to improve. A Multiplayer room, with its names and scores, ends after seven days.

Can children play?

Yes — Apple rates Kerygma 4+. Difficulty has three tiers, so younger players can stay on Acquainted (familiar stories, clear answers) while everyone else takes harder rounds.

How does the trial work?

Seven days, every feature. The App Store or Google Play asks for a payment method to start. Cancel before the seven days end and you pay nothing.

Can I cancel anytime?

Anytime, from your Apple Subscriptions settings. Your access stays active through the end of the period you've already paid for.

Does it work on iPad?

Yes — same app, with a layout built for the larger screen. Landscape and portrait both supported.

Can I play with my whole church or group?

Multiplayer mode hosts a room with a five-character code. Everyone joins from their own phone, plays the same questions in sync, and shares one leaderboard with per-question review.

Which Bible translation does Kerygma use?

It depends on the language you play in. English uses the English Standard Version (ESV), Romanian uses the Cornilescu translation, and Spanish uses the Reina Valera. The questions themselves are AI-generated from the canonical text and aren't tied to one translation.

What languages is Kerygma available in?

English, Romanian and Spanish. The whole app is translated, not just the interface: questions, Bible verses and the daily reflection all come in the language you choose, from that language's own Bible translation. Switch anytime from the language button on the home screen.

How is Kerygma different from other Bible apps?

Most Bible apps are reading apps. Kerygma is a study tool — every round leaves you with a verse open in front of you and a short commentary. There are no ads, and nothing scolds you for a missed day. At its heart is one thing: trivia rounds that pull you back into the actual text.

Are there ads in Kerygma?

No. Not now and not planned. The subscription is the only revenue model — that's the entire business and it's deliberate. No banner ads, no sponsored questions, no in-app upsells beyond the subscription itself.

Can I play offline?

Kerygma needs an internet connection, because the questions come from our server as you play, from the checked bank or written new by AI. Multiplayer rounds need everyone connected.

How is the app rated?

Apple rates Kerygma 4+, the most family-friendly tier. The Acquainted difficulty is suitable for elementary-age children; Conversant fits middle-schoolers and adults working at narrative grasp; Profound is written for adults with biblical literacy. There's no inappropriate content at any difficulty.
