Lumin: Bible AI Companion
Your sermons, kept all week
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A sermon can end on Sunday. Lumin keeps its meaning with you — a clear digest, one line to carry, and a next step for the week.
Lumin is a Christian companion for the days between Sundays.
KEEP SUNDAY ALL WEEK
Bring in a sermon by link, audio file, or recording. Lumin gives you a clear digest, key Scripture, and an Anchor line to carry into the week. Choose one faithful step, then return to the same sermon when Monday gets loud.
SERMON WEEK
See what stayed. Your carried line, your chosen practice, and your recent reflections remain together in one quiet place. Come back without starting over.
BIBLE COACH, INSIDE THE CHAPTER
Read Scripture with a guide beside the passage. Ask about the chapter, see the passage behind the answer, and keep moving through context.
YOUR MEMORIES STAY YOURS
With your permission, Lumin can remember the prayers and moments you choose to keep. See what stays, hide it, edit it, or remove it whenever you want.
ASK WHEN WORDS ARE HARD
Bring the real question — a decision, a relationship, or the thing you cannot phrase alone. Lumin offers a warm next step grounded in Scripture. Compare it with the text and trusted pastoral wisdom.
MAKE ROOM TO PRAY
Find a quieter way in with morning and evening prayer and guided reflection for the in-between.
Lumin is a companion, not a replacement for Scripture, your church, or your pastor. Open cited passages in context and keep the final word with the Word and the people who know you.

3.14.0 Aug 6
umin can speak with you now.
• Talk with Lumin — have the conversation out loud. Speak, listen, and pick up
where you left off.
• Sermons have their own tab. Add any sermon and get a summary, the key verses,
and a 7-day plan — then ask it anything.
• Lumin asks you now, too: one personal question a day, drawn from what you've
shared.
• New on the Pray tab: Lectio Divina — a slow, voice-led reading of one short
passage — and a spoken rite for the prayer you're still waiting on.
• A calmer, warmer design across the whole app.
• What Lumin remembers is always yours to see, edit, or delete — on the You tab.
• Faster first answers, and many fixes.
3.13.0 Jul 4
The Carrying — a new spoken prayer for a request that hasn't
been answered yet. Name what you're waiting on, and Lumin prays
through it with you, out loud.
A calmer Pray tab. One clear page now: today's prayer up top,
your own prayers first, and the other practices a tap away.
Your first week. New to Lumin? It builds you a personal 7-day
plan from the very first thing you ask.
The daily question now remembers. It can follow up on something
you told it before, instead of starting from scratch.
Counsel you can come back to. Your saved, Scripture-cited
answers resurface when they're worth a second read.
Also in this update: export everything Lumin remembers in one
file, a warmer dark mode, accessibility fixes, and a daily verse
that marks holidays like Father's Day and Thanksgiving.
3.12.0 Jun 25
Lectio Divina: a short, voice-led way to read one passage of Scripture slowly —
read, reflect, pray, rest. On the Pray tab.
The One True Question: once a day, Lumin asks you one personal question and
remembers your answer.
You can now lay down a sermon line you've been carrying — it keeps its place in
your history instead of vanishing when you pick the next one.
3.11.0 Jun 17
The Counsel — Some questions are too heavy for a quick reply. Bring one to the Counsel and Lumin writes you a longer, Scripture-cited answer you can keep and return to — your hardest questions met with care, not a one-liner.
Carry a line from every sermon — Choose one sentence to hold onto from any sermon and it stays with you all week: on your home screen, in the morning, while you pray. The sermon companion is cleaner and easier to talk with, too.
A quieter Bible reader — Redesigned around the words themselves: a calmer page, beautiful type, and a clear sense of where you are in each chapter.
A refreshed You tab — Your prayers, your streak, and the things Lumin remembers, gathered into one simpler home.
A note from the maker — A short, honest hello from the person building Lumin, and the why behind it.
Plus dozens of small fixes and refinements throughout.
3.10.0 Jun 16
This update deepens how Lumin walks with you.
• Memory, on your terms. When you share something that matters, Lumin can now offer to remember it — and you can see, edit, or clear everything it holds, anytime.
• Share an answered prayer. When something you've carried is finally answered, turn it into a testimony card to send to someone who prayed alongside you.
• A daily verse that invites you in. The verse waiting on your home now carries a quiet touch of light.
• Study plans that meet you where you are. Each day's reflection is refreshed to feel written for your walk, not a template.
• Quieter, kinder, everywhere. Warmer wording when something goes wrong, steadier voice prayer, and a wide accessibility pass — VoiceOver, larger tap targets, and more.
3.9.1 Jun 11
A calmer place to ask — and more of Lumin meeting you through the day.
Our most heartfelt release yet:
• A redesigned Ask — warmer and quieter, focused on your question and the Word that answers it. Lumin names the verse and one next step, and the daily verse now greets you in light each time you open the app.
• Magical Bible reading — a distraction-free reader with a gentle invitation into each chapter, refined chapter navigation, and listen-aloud built in.
• Pray With Me, in the evening — close your eyes for a guided prayer that walks back through your day and lays it down with God.
• A word waiting in the morning — Lumin keeps a personal promise from your very first prayer and meets you with it at first light.
• Letters from the Cloud of Witnesses (Lumin+) — choose a voice from church history as your companion for a season, and receive a personal letter written for your walk.
• Breath you can feel during Pray With Me, a more trustworthy memory of what you've shared, and polish in every corner.
Thank you for praying with us.
3.9.0 Jun 9
What's New in 3.8.0
This update is about being known — Lumin holding the thread of your walk and meeting you right where you left off.
• It picks the thread back up. Open Ask and Lumin gently returns to what you were carrying — "I've been holding this
for you" — so you're never starting from zero.
• Answered prayers don't slip by. When something you've prayed for comes through, Lumin notices and helps you mark it
— closing the loop, and remembering the moment.
• The Sending. Every prayer walk now ends with a spoken blessing — Lumin prays you out before you open your eyes.
• Pray With Me, refined. A few quiet minutes, prayed aloud — hands and eyes at rest, nothing to read.
• It remembers what's on your heart. The things you carry are held, and return at the right moment instead of being
lost.
• A calmer Ask home, plus dozens of small touches that make Lumin feel more like a companion and less like a tool.
Thank you for walking with us.
3.8.0 Jun 4
Small refinements to make your first moments with Lumin calmer and more reliable — your opening question now lands cleanly, every time. Thank you for walking with us.
3.7.1 May 30
What's New (3.7.0)
A warmer welcome, and more transparency about what Lumin remembers.
• A real answer in your first minute. The new welcome opens with a
question that meets you wherever you are on your walk — and Lumin
responds before you sign up for anything.
• What Lumin Remembers. A new place to see what Lumin has noticed
about your journey — prayers, milestones, the moments that matter.
Review it, edit it, or clear anything you'd rather it forget.
You're always in control.
• Refinements across onboarding, plus fixes to make everything
feel a little more at home.
3.7.0 May 29

3.6.0 May 27
Lumin 3.5 — Your faith, remembered.
This is our biggest release yet. Lumin now remembers your walk with God across every conversation, prayer, and sermon — and quietly carries it forward.
The Anchor — Pick one sentence from each sermon to carry with you. It shows up in chat, your prayer journal, and your Walking Story so the message keeps shaping the week.
Walking Story — A chronological timeline of your spiritual journey. Answered prayers, sermon moments, conversations that mattered — all in one place. Ask about it conversationally: "what was that prayer from October?"
Threads — Ongoing topics — a relationship, a struggle, a hope — quietly continue across the app. We'll check in when something's been quiet for a while, and celebrate when prayers are answered.
Voice prayer & prayer walks — Speak your prayers aloud and hear a thoughtful response back. Start a prayer walk and let the conversation continue from your pocket while you move.
Pastor podcast auto-import — Paste your church's podcast feed once. New sermons appear in Lumin automatically, ready to discuss.
Sanctuary redesign — A calmer, more illuminated interface across the whole app. Time-of-day light, gentler chrome, less noise.
Plus — Verse-of-the-day Live Activity on your Lock Screen, smarter sermon capture, and dozens of refinements throughout.
Thank you for walking with us.
