Here’s what our First 5 friends are saying…

“I wake up every morning, and this is the first thing I pick up. It has impacted me that I start my day with Jesus. I was starting it with anxiety and fear, and I had been struggling with trusting God. If I start with First 5 in the mornings, then my day is headed in the right direction.” 

Marsha B.

“First 5 has helped me a lot since I have deleted social media. I was dealing with shame and anxiety from my past. I used to wake up and go on Facebook, but instead I now go on First 5. I’ve been looking for a consistent way to get in the Word and love First 5. I use First 5 to deeper understand my study and get different perspectives. First 5 is the positive way I need to start my day in troubling times.”

Emily B.

“God has worked in my life through First 5 by holding me accountable and relearning His Word and teaching. It makes me feel uplifted. It has surrounded me and made me hungry for more teaching. It just opened my eyes and has been the biggest blessing. I thank God for allowing this and bringing His Word to me when I needed it.”

Miranda H.
