The Living Bread Verses for Needs

The Scripture The Living Bread pairs with what a person is carrying: anxiety, fear, grief, loneliness, anger, guilt, doubt, money, marriage, healing, purpose and about a hundred more needs. 941 rows at build time, each a need, a rank, a Bible reference, one line in the house's own words on why that verse, and the King James words of the reference read from the stored text with their SHA-256.

Fields

need (a slug, e.g. anxiety), need_label, rank (the house's order within the need), ref, why (the house's own words, a reflection, never Scripture), why_is (says exactly that), kjv_text (the King James Version words of ref, read from the stored text), kjv_sha256, page (the page on living-bread.org where the need is written about and where believers pray over it by name).

Provenance

The mapping is curated by The Living Bread (mcp/src/data/needs.json in its repository, the same data the MCP tool verses_for and the pages at living-bread.org/bible-verses-for- read). The verse words are joined at build time from the stored King James Version; nothing is typed and nothing is generated. Built by mcp/distribution/huggingface/build.py.

Intended use

Retrieval for pastoral and devotional assistants: when a person says what they are carrying, offer Scripture that speaks to it, from a real text, with the reference. Keep the two layers apart: kjv_text is Scripture; why is a human reflection about it and must never be presented as the Bible. When a person is in danger, a crisis line comes before any verse (the MCP tool crisis_resources gives the real numbers by country).

Licence

The mapping and the why lines: CC BY 4.0, attribute "The Living Bread (living-bread.org)". The King James Version text is in the public domain.
