- Fresh passage, catechism question, letter, and hymn every day.
- A streak that rewards showing up, not checking boxes.

- Connection dimensions scored, not just listed.
- Highlights land on both passages, so the echo is visible.
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. — Psalm 23:1

Where else does Scripture call Christ the Word?
John’s prologue is the clearest — John 1:14 and Revelation 19:13 — the latter naming him “The Word of God” outright.
