I've had a fairly repeatable crash in the 2.2.9 version of the Bible app.

I'm running Android 4.2.1 on a Nexus 7. I typically leave the app "open" in memory for quick access. The first day the app runs just fine without any issues. On the next day, I open the app to do my reading plans. Whenever I try to access the search pane to open the reading plan the app crashes. Upon a reload the program functions as it should.

If I remember correctly, in previous versions of the app, the menu would open to the last window (i.e. search pane/reading plan instead of the library window). When I open the app for the second day, when I try to load the menu it defaults to the library window, instead of the last one I had open, which is what results in the crash.

This has happened every day since installing version 2.2.9.

This should be fixed in the new 2.2.10 beta.
