    I would love to see this widget have the ability to hyperlink the scripture reading to one of the Bible sites so that you could read the selection for the day. Do you know what I mean?

    Sure. That makes sense. What website do you like the best?

    http://www.esv.org/ or http://www.biblegateway.com/ would be fine.

    Thanks!

    Hi Damon. It looks like its doing that for several of your widgets (like the "Configure your Sidebars" widget). It must be a theme related issue. Not sure.

    Hi,
    How can we use this plugin to get the text from our malayalam bible text.So that others can use it in their sites.
    Thanks

    @Doulos: I’ve never heard of it. Where is it online? Is it on BibleGateway? That’s where the other versions link to.

    It would be awesome if it could show the scripture verse text in addition to the passage.

    I was curious…I use the bible reading plan that is listed for the Life Journal (http://www.lifejournal.cc/) and I was wondering if there is a way to customize for this particular reading plan?
