About

Glorify is an app designed to help Christians strengthen their daily connection with God. The company was Co-Founded in 2020 by Ed Beccle and Henry Costa. Henry, the son of Ken Costa, a veteran investment banker and christian leader and who is also chairman of Glorify, understood the mass appeal of using technology to address the growing problem of anxiety and sleep, but believed there was room for something even more fulfilling from a Christian perspective. Knowing that many Christians had the desire to pray and create structure around their quiet time but often found themselves pressed for time or without the best resources at hand, they started Glorify, an app rooted in faith, to give Christians everywhere an easy path to creating a daily habit of connecting with God. Glorify was founded in 2020 and is headquartered in London, with offices around the globe. SOURCE Glorify
