How do I subscribe again if I accidentally marked one of your emails as spam?

If you accidentally marked one of our emails as spam you'll have to reach out to us directly using the contact form at the top of this page. Please note: it may take a couple of weeks for your email to become eligible again.

I don't know why I stopped receiving the Today Devotional email, how do I subscribe again?

If you didn't unsubscribe from the email or mark one of our emails as spam, then you probably stopped receiving your subscription because of a bounce. A bounce is when your email server tells our email server that something is either wrong with your email address or that your email server thinks that we're sending emails that we shouldn't be.

The first step is to add the email address [email protected] to your contact records in your email account. After you've added that email as a contact record, please reach out using the form at the top of this page. The more information you are able to provide the sooner we will be able to help you with your problem. Please include the following information:

  • Device (Desktop/laptop, tablet, mobile)
  • Operating System (Windows, Mac OS X, Android, iOS)
  • Email Client (Yahoo, Gmail, etc)
  • Detailed information about the problem that you are encountering

Email bounces can be tricky sometimes, so we appreciate your patience. Please check out the other ways to get the Today Devotional if you continue to encounter issues with the Today email.

How do I make sure I continue to receive Today?

  • Add [email protected] to your contacts/address book. If you do not know how to add a contact to your address book, click here for instructions.
  • Open and click the e-mails you do receive. This will let your inbox know it can trust incoming e-mails from [email protected].
  • Move any e-mails from [email protected] from the junk/spam folder into your primary folder/inbox. Your inbox will learn where to place these e-mails in the future.
