  1. Believe it or not, in 2016, the Bible was translated into emojis to help younger readers understand it. “Bible Emoji: Scripture 4 Millennials” is an app that features all 66 books of the King James Bible translated into emojis. “God” is replaced with 😇 (smiling face with halo), “light” is replaced with 💡 (lightbulb), and those are only a couple of examples. The app gained traction on social media, with users praising and criticizing it. But, at the end of the day, most Christians can agree that it doesn’t matter how the Bible is being read, as long as it’s being read![1] Here are some example verses:
    • Emoji Bible: “& 😇 called the 💡⛅, & the darkness he called 🌃. & the evening & the morning were the 1st ⛅.”
      • Translation: “God called the light ‘day,’ and the darkness he called ‘night.’ And there was evening, and there was morning–the first day” (Genesis 1:5).[2]
    • Emoji Bible: “& jesus 💬 unto them, come ye after i will make u 2 become 🐟ers of men.”
