Most Popular Bible Verses

Sadly, “let us run with endurance the race that is set before us” from Hebrews 12:1 didn’t make the Top 10 Most “Popular” Bible Verses.  I bet if we were to poll the endurance community it would be on the short list!

I’ve been using an online Bible called YouVersion to complete my Bible reading goals for the past few years.  They make it super easy with e-mail, RSS, mobile, and other options for reading any part of the Bible or your daily reading plan.  YouVersion is also a community allowing you to tag, comment, highlight, etc on any passage of the Bible.  If daily Bible reading is your thing, you should really check it out it has most translations of the Bible and thousands of different languages.
