Grab the Android App 'Tasker' and create a profile for And Bible.  You can then 
set the timeout to whatever you want.  It works very nicely.

I set my timeout to 10 mins in the Android Settings and that seems fine for me.

Attached a patch that keeps the screen always on (prevent it from going to 
sleep). You could add an option to determine weather to call addFlags or 
clearFlags.

Here's an updated patch. Replace "if(true)" with an actual configuration option 
check.

I have added an And Bible specific screen timeout in the next release.
