About this episode

In this episode, Bobby Gruenewald discusses the impact of the YouVersion Bible App and the importance of making Scripture accessible in today's noisy world.

Southside Tribe!! What started in a TSA line became a global movement. In this episode of Southside Rabbi, we sit with Bobby Gruenewald, founder of the YouVersion Bible App, to explore humility, failure, innovation, and how God’s Word still creates movement in a world saturated with noise. From billion-download milestones to resisting monetization, to the enduring hunger for truth, this conversation reminds us that Scripture doesn’t need to be reinvented—it just needs to be accessible.
