About CrossHeartPray
✝️ Cross ❤️ Heart 🙏 Pray
CrossHeartPray is a simple, Bible-first way to read Scripture, pray, and grow every day.
It started with a daily rhythm: read the Word, pray, reflect.
A few focused tools help you stay consistent and keep going.
Daily Hope → Bible Reading Plan → Life Essentials → Bible Bingo 7 → Deep Dive → Track progress
The CrossHeartPray pages
Daily Hope
- Begin with the Sinner Prayer.
- Continue with the Salvation Prayer.
- Read the fixed hope verses for the day.
- Close with prayer.
Read the whole Bible at your pace
Choose 1 Year · 52 Weeks or 2 Years · 104 Weeks.
Both plans follow the same seven reading lanes through the complete Bible using whole chapters.
The one-year plan completes the journey in 52 weeks. The two-year plan follows the same journey at a gentler pace over 104 weeks.
Open readings in Scripture and track your progress as you go.
Life Essentials · Dr. Gene Getz
Dr. Gene Getz's Life Essentialshas shaped a big part of this project. It is his life's work — more than 1,500 Bible principles drawn straight from Scripture, paired with hundreds of hours of video teaching.
I was blessed to meet Dr. Getz in person and to hold his own personally signed Life Essentials Study Bible. We sat together with his men's ski group — which included Apollo 16 moonwalker astronaut Charlie Duke. It is a night I will never forget, and a big reason Life Essentials runs all through CrossHeartPray.
Open the Bible first. When a verse connects to a Life Essentials principle, continue with Dr. Gene Getz.
