About Portals of Prayer

No matter when or where, Portals of Prayer inspires you to live each day as a disciple of Christ. Through each daily audio-and-textual devotion, you meditate on God’s Word and see it working through you in your life. New updates allow for a seamless and easy-to-use interface, keeping you focused on your devotional time.


What’s New?

Welcome to the NEW Portals of Prayer App. There have been many updates to help make your experience seamless, from the subscription feature to how the devotions are displayed. Here’s a list of all the new features:

Navigation Bar

Two features from the original navigation bar have now moved. The bottom still contains “Devotions” and “Favorites.” “Prayers” has now been renamed “Resources” to better represent its offerings. This tab will still be located on the bottom navigation bar. “Search” and “Settings” have been relocated to the top navigation bar.

Devotions

An updated design allows for a sleek and modern devotions screen. Press the Play button in the middle of the image to hear your audio devotion. Swipe right or left to see previous or future devotions.

Archives

Not only can you search based on topic or month, but devotions are now also categorized based on year and quarter to make finding a devotion from the print version that much easier.

Resources

The “Prayers” tab is now called “Resources” and includes daily prayers, prayers for special occasions, and author biographies.

Settings

The app now offers a dark mode for your reading convenience.

Favorites

The app now syncs your favorites across all your devices so long as you use the same Concordia Publishing House account.

About Portals of Prayer

Portals of Prayer is a quarterly print devotional that has been a favorite for generations of readers. Since 1937, the meaningful daily devotions and ending prayers have offered a daily moment of time with God, comforting believers through their lives.

Concordia Publishing House Portals of Prayer App Subscription

While the Portals of Prayer App is free to download, you need a subscription to access all the amazing features. A new subscription is $9.99 per year and can be purchased through the app. Here’s what each subscription includes:

- Daily audio and textual devotions
- Meaningful daily prayers
