MISSION

Pear Bible's mission is to help people read the Bible regularly or for the first time. We believe this is enabled by making Scripture easy to engage with, and easy to share, wherever you are. The reading experience on Pear is born out of these two things. As such, Pear Bible leverages technology to provide highly interactive bibles with reading plans that create real accountability.
