  • Paul's Handkerchief combines the latest in biblical scholarship alongside 'coffee with Jesus' activities to reclaim the Ancient Near East context, romance, and mystery of our Bibles.

  • Few people who start reading the Bible ever finish it. The cover-to-cover challenge is for those ready to break that cycle — reading the entire Bible at their own pace, backed by community and tools built to make finishing not just possible, but inevitable. You will also get a certificate to celebrate your achievement each time.

  • Having a coffee with Jesus is about spending quality time with Him. It isn't just Bible study, but a personal, intimate conversation with Him. Think less classroom, more kitchen table. The devotionals, quizzes, crosswords and journaling are all designed to let the Word shape your heart, not just your head.

  • Most English Bibles can't carry the full weight of what's in the original Hebrew and Greek. The F.O.G. Bible Project exists to change that: three new translations built publicly (a Study Bible, a Reader's Paraphrase, and F.O.G. Family), plus a word-by-word renewal of Strong's Concordance. It is Jean Paul Joseph's lifelong work, unfolding in public — and you're invited in.

  • Jean Paul Joseph is the lead editor of the F.O.G. Bible Project. He works from a personal encounter with Jesus first, then draws on the scholarship of respected Jewish and Christian scholars to produce resources designed for falling in love with the Word.

  • Join the club, pick a Bible translation and a reading style that fits you, and you're in. From there, the app tracks your progress and helps keep you showing up — day after day, chapter after chapter.

The cover-to-cover Bible Challenge is free because of a generous community of givers & patrons.

Community Guidelines

What we expect from community engagement on Paul’s Handkerchief — and how moderation works.

Last updated: July 1st, 2026

A space for sincere engagement

Paul's Handkerchief is a space for sincere engagement with Scripture — through journaling, Q&A contributions, and other content you share on the platform. These guidelines explain what we expect and how we handle content that falls short.

This page works alongside our Terms of Service, which sets out the legal rules for Acceptable Use. This page explains, in plainer terms, what that looks like in practice.

✦

What we're looking for

Honest, respectful, on-topic

  • Honest engagement with Scripture, even where you're wrestling with a hard question
  • Respectful toward other members, including in disagreement
  • On-topic and relevant to the content you're responding to
✦

What's not allowed

The short version

In line with our Terms of Service, content that is unlawful, defamatory, obscene, hateful, harassing, or that impersonates another person or entity is not permitted. This includes content that targets another member personally rather than engaging with ideas or Scripture.

✦

Moderation · Reporting · Response

How it works

Moderation: currently handled directly by Paul's Handkerchief. Public submissions are generally visible immediately rather than held for approval. Content violating these guidelines or our Terms is removed. Response times vary — we review as we become aware, including through member reports.

Reporting: flag concerns via our Contact page with a link or description and why you're flagging it. No in-platform report button yet — Contact is fastest.

Response: case by case, considering nature and severity — removal, direct contact, or restriction of access per the Suspension and Termination section of our Terms of Service. Fair and proportionate, especially for first-time issues — but immediate action where content is harmful or unlawful.
