Hi friend 👋
October is a month we’ll remember. Ask Ezra appeared on the Dove Awards stage, our community now reaches people in 29 countries, and more than 42,000 questions about God’s Word have been answered.
But this was never really about an app. Behind every number is a person — someone reading Scripture before sunrise, a student wrestling with hard questions, a small group opening the Bible together. And behind every one of them is a community that keeps saying yes to helping more people know God through His Word.
That community is you. Here’s what God has been doing this season — and, at the end, two simple ways you can help carry it further.
🏆 Ask Ezra at the 57th Dove Awards
A Milestone Moment
On October 6, Ask Ezra was featured at the 57th Annual GMA Dove Awards — our 30-second spot aired on the screens at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville and on the TBN national telecast. A tool built for everyday Bible study, shared in one of Christian music’s biggest rooms — and you helped put it there.
This gift came through one of our own — generously provided by a fellow Ask Ezra supporter. We’re deeply grateful — to God, and to the people who keep believing in this mission.
🔥 What We’re Celebrating Together
Every number here represents real people meeting God in His Word — and all of it grew in just two months. 🙌

This is a shared work, and there’s a place in it for everyone. If Ask Ezra has blessed your walk, here are two ways to join in:
Way 1 · Free · Takes a minute
