You Can Know — The Gospel in Their Pocket

For decades, churches reached the lost through mail-in Bible correspondence courses. Mail isn't how people meet Jesus anymore.

You Can Know is a 12-lesson Bible study app built for churches of Christ — placing a thoughtful, anonymous study of the gospel in the hands of seekers in your community, and connecting every one of them back to your congregation. Each church gets a custom QR code, an admin dashboard, and an in-app chat between every seeker and the Companion you assign.

12-Lesson Study Read, listen, or hear a two-host podcast conversation per lesson.
Linked to Your Church A custom QR code connects every seeker back to your congregation.
Built to Reach the World English now · Spanish in development · Farsi & Arabic next.
