Bible Clock FAQ

How does Bible Clock tell time through scripture?

The chapter corresponds to the hour and the verse to the minute. For example, at 3:16 pm you might see John 3:16 or 2 Timothy 3:16. At 3:17 you might see Zephaniah 3:17 or Daniel 3:17. Bible Clock displays one of over 10,000 verses, each timed to appear throughout your day. 

What about times that don't have a matching verse?

For the few times each day that don't align with a chapter and verse, Bible Clock displays Christ-centered inspirational quotes or simply shows the time.

How does Bible Clock choose which Books of the Bible to draw verses from?

Each minute, Bible Clock finds the verses whose chapter and verse match the current time, then randomly selects one from across the books of the Bible. At 3:16, for example, you might see John 3:16 one day and Genesis 3:16 the next. Our team curates with a light touch, setting aside verses that don’t read clearly on their own, such as partial sentences or genealogies, so that as much of the Bible as possible stays in the rotation.

Does Bible Clock require WiFi or an app?

No. While WiFi is encouraged for firmware updates, or to download alternate translations including the New American Standard Bible (NASB), it's not required. You can set the time with the touchscreen and enjoy all pre-loaded verses offline. No app needed.

What power source does Bible Clock use?

Bible Clock is powered via a standard USB-C plug, which is included. Simply connect it to any USB power source and get started.

What's included in the box?

Each Bible Clock ships with the clock itself in your chosen wood (Oak or Olive), a built-in brushed-brass alloy stand with a non-slip cork pad, and a USB-C cable. Free shipping on all US orders.

Can I personalize or customize a Bible Clock?

Bible Clock offers custom laser engraving services. Whether you’re buying a Bible Clock for yourself or someone else, make it personal by engraving a name, favorite verse, or inspiring message. Simply select “Add Engraving” before adding a Bible Clock to your cart. 

What occasions are ideal for giving a Bible Clock as a gift?

Bible Clock is perfectly suited to a wide variety of Christian occasions, milestones, and holidays. It’s a natural fit for baptism, christening, first communion, and confirmation– when godparents, grandparents, and family often look for something a child can keep as they grow. It also works well for holidays such as Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Easter, and Christmas. 

What versions of the Bible are available on Bible Clock?

Bible Clocks are preloaded with the King James Version, our favorite for single-verse reading. Its timeless, poetic language has shaped how generations remember scripture, and its verses often stand beautifully on their own, which is just what a clock that shows one verse at a time calls for.

On Wi-Fi-enabled clocks, connect to Wi-Fi and select Update to access additional translations, including the New American Standard Bible (NASB), a direct, word-for-word translation, and the Reina-Valera 1909, a classic Spanish translation.

Where should I put Bible Clock?

Bible Clock sits comfortably on any tabletop, shelf, or bedside, so you can place it wherever you’d like scripture to meet your day. Its brushed-brass alloy stand and non-slip cork base keep it steady, and the natural wood frame fits well with a wide variety of interior decor styles. Many of our customers choose a spot they pass often, like a living room shelf or a bedside table, so each glance at the time offers a quiet moment of reflection.
