Here’s what our First 5 friends are saying …

  • God has impacted my life in a positive way through First 5. He has increased my interest in learning more about the Bible. The daily reading keeps me dedicated in my learning journey.

    Leslie Y.
  • When I look back at my 'My Moments,' I can see that First 5 has helped me do more than just read Scripture — it has helped me truly engage with it. I’m not just reading words anymore; I’m asking what they mean for me in my everyday life.

    I’ve started to recognize God in my own story. Through loss, hardship, and blessings like my family and home, I can see He has been present all along. First 5 has helped me connect those moments to His Word in a way I never did before."

    Carol G.
  • I have been doing these first 5 studies every morning for the last year, and it completely shifts how I go about my day! When a morning gets busy and I miss one, I feel such a difference in my attitude and heart! The Lord has such a powerful way of working in my life through these!
