A little Scripture, every single day
The Word of the Day is a simple, free word game with a gentle purpose: to bring a piece of Scripture into your day. Every day there is one new five-letter word drawn from the Bible — a name, a place, or a word rich with meaning like grace, faith, or mercy. Everyone playing that day is trying to guess the same word, so you can compare with friends and family.
When you finish, we don't just tell you the word — we show you where it lives in the Bible, with a verse and a link to read the whole passage in our online Bible. In that small way, a two-minute game becomes a doorway into God's Word.
How to play
- Type any five-letter word and press Enter to make a guess.
- A green tile means the letter is correct and in the right spot.
- A gold tile means the letter is in the word, but in a different spot.
- A gray tile means the letter is not in the word at all.
- You have six guesses. Stuck? Tap Need a hint? for a clue.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account?
No. The game is completely free, with no sign-up. Your streak and statistics are stored privately in your own browser, never on our servers.
Is it the same word for everyone?
Yes — everyone gets the same "Word of the Day," which changes at midnight. If you'd like to keep playing, switch to Practice mode for a new random word each round.
What kind of words are used?
Every answer is a five-letter word connected to the Bible — key ideas, people, and places — and each one comes with a verse so you can read it in context.
Can my kids play?
Absolutely. It's a friendly challenge for all ages and a fun way to learn Bible words together. You'll find more for children in our Bible for Kids & Families section.
