The Pour Over App
The news you need.
The peace you crave.
Politically neutral, Christ-first news in a five minute read, three times a week. Plus prayer, puzzles and everything we cannot fit in an email.
Free to download. No account required to start reading.
How much of your year is the news taking?
Four questions. Then we will do the math against fifteen minutes a week, which is what The Pour Over actually costs you.
Question 1 of 4
On a day you check the news, how long does it take?
Count the scrolling, not just the reading.
Everything we cannot fit in an email.
The news
Five minutes. No spin. No side.
Every story of the day, summarized so you actually understand it, with a brief Christian perspective underneath. No party line, because we do not have one.
- Monday, Wednesday and Friday, free
- Written neutral, then checked for it
- Scripture with the story, not bolted on after
Prayer
Somewhere to put what you just read.
Praying the News turns the headlines into something you can actually pray through, so the day's worst story does not just sit there.
- A written prayer tied to the day's news
- Save the ones you want to come back to
- Premium readers pray through their news 3.5 times more often
Games
Four games, and a leaderboard for your friends.
The Four Over, the TPO Mini, Forage and Bloom. The website gets one Four Over a week. The app gets it three times, alongside everything else.
- The Four Over on Monday, Wednesday and Friday
- The TPO Mini, plus Forage and Bloom when you want something quieter
- A leaderboard you can actually beat your friends on
A look inside.
What readers say about it.
The Pour Over does an excellent job of giving just the facts while reminding me that no matter what is happening in the world, our God is still bigger!
TPO is the only news source I need to stay smart, but focus on Christ!
There’s no better way to read the latest news. I appreciate how easy it is to navigate, and I love listening to it in my car.
