    Hi Rainer,
    I came across your blog and love how you support the Christian blogging community!
    I’m an independent developer and I just launched a brand-new, completely free digital library called TheoAtlas (https://theoatlas.com). It’s designed to help people study systematic theology easily through structured biblical questions.
    Since it’s a new non-profit project, I’d be honored if you could check it out or share any feedback. If you find it helpful for your readers, I’d love to explore any collaboration!

    Blessings,
    Buivananh.dev@gmail.com

    Thank you SO much, Rene. Heartsong is a lovely name. How did you come about it? Aging eyes are no fun. I’m glad to hear technology is working for you and enabling you to study God’s Word. I appreciate you stopping by my blog and taking time to drop an encouraging and insightful comment. Blessings to you as well, Rene.

    I recently got the BlueLetterBible app on all 3 of my tablets so that I could have 3 reading plans. I have stacks of Bibles, but with old eyes/cataracts, I can now read God’s Word much more easily all day long–in between necessary chores. It’s beyond wonderful. God bless you abundantly.
