The study was an aggregate of 76 million study sessions, which represents how 4 million people throughout the world studied the Bible in 2025. Logos broke down the findings into three key themes.<\/p>\n<p>The first theme of the study was \u201cLogos Users Want to Know God.\u201d Logos found that \u201cGod,\u201d \u201cJesus,\u201d and, \u201cSpirit\u201d topped the list of searches respectively. This showed an interest in the Trinitarian identity of God. The book of Matthew was the most studied book of 2025. The book of Matthew dives into the nature of Jesus as Messiah as well as his position as the Son of God, falling nicely into the Trinitarian focus that Logos\u2019s users seemed so interested in.<\/p>\n<p>The second theme was \u201cLogos Users Know the Power of the Word.\u201d This stems from the top-searched Bible verse, 2 Timothy 3:16, which states \u201cAll scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,\u201d in the King James Version. The second most-highlighted verse was Matthew 16:18, which states, \u201cOn this rock will I build my church,\u201d a reference to the disciple Peter that Catholics view as establishing the papacy. Logos allows it users to study the original language meanings of the words in Scripture, with users\u2019 most-searched Greek term being \u03bb\u03cc\u03b3\u03bf\u03c2, or logos, meaning \u201cword,\u201d \u201creason,\u201d or \u201cmessage.\u201d Users also most used Logos\u2019s \u201cGuides\u201d feature, which enables users to look up commentaries, original language tools, and other in-depth study tools.<\/p>\n<p>The final theme Logos highlighted was \u201cLogos Users Span the Globe.\u201d Logos found that its users came from 164 countries and 35 territories. Five of the top ten countries that utilized Logos were not primarily English-speaking (Brazil, Germany, Mexico, South Korea, and Singapore). It\u2019s Logos putting Matthew 24:14 into practice, which states \u201cAnd this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.\u201d \u201cWe at Logos are building technology to increase biblical literacy and accessibility for every Christian around the world. Our vision is as far-reaching as the Great Commission, and we know it will take continued effort,\u201d said Logos president Chris Migura. \u201cStill, we\u2019re overjoyed to see the progress we\u2019ve made in equipping believers everywhere to go deeper in light of the Bible.\u201d Overall, according to Migura, the findings go to the heart of why Logos exists. \u201cThese findings confirm what we\u2019ve always believed: People are hungry for more than surface-level Bible reading,\u201d he said. \u201cThey want tools that help them read Scripture in depth\u2014with the help of the Bible\u2019s original languages, centuries of theological insight, and the ability to trace themes across the entire canon. That\u2019s exactly what Logos provides.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Logos, a Bible study platform, released its study Logos Chronicled, revealing the reading habits of Christians in 2025.
