In 2013, I met a man in Hong Kong named Arnie. He told me about a free phone app goTandem.
Arnie explained to me how research shows that daily bible engagement keeps us closer to Jesus. I’ve been using goTandem ever since.
Thanks Arnie!
Below are my goTandem favorited verses from the last 30 days.

About GettingCloserToOurGod
This blog is written by Todd Christenson. He was raised in Nebraska and currently lives on Long Island in New York.
Though out my childhood, my family attended church. We prayed together at meals. I thought I was prepared for life.
After college, I moved to New York City. Shy, unsure of myself, building an identity in worldly things, increasingly prideful, self-righteousness, a controlling nature.
In 2013, God spoke through someone, suggesting I confess my sins. I did. I realized that every day, I’d been glorifying myself, not God.
Today, God’s teaching me to have my identity in Him, only, my dependency in Him, not myself, being who He wants me to be, not the world, loving Him first, loving others as myself.
