I tried several different methods for mental health but I didn’t work. I started reading online bible couple days ago which I feel calmer and easier. This morning, I found out bible journalling and I am interested. I am a Chinese lived in the US. Chinese is better.

That is so sad! If you can find one with thick pages, perhaps that can help you create your own. Use tip-ins for extra space, maybe find one with single-column and use it. Finally, you can try and publish your own. Honestly, maybe the Lord is calling you to be the one to make it happen. Best wishes for your journey!

I just bought my husband and I one of those leather journaling Bible with the leather strap around it. My husband really like it. I also bought him a journal of the same style with the leather strap. Thanks, Rebekah... blessings!

I had the illustrating Bible (last one in review) in my shopping card. I LOVE the spiral bound and all the room. Problem for me was the small font, also I love adding tip in’s . Assuming tip ins are harder with spiral bound. I ended up getting the NIV Beautiful word Colouring bible. I like it however there is not writing space. My perfect bible would be spiral bound with 12 pt fond size and NASB with 4 “ margins and red lettering. Not picky 😂😂

Thanks, Rebekah. ESV also has the individual books of the Bible I found at Amazon and Dayspring.

Thank you for this

They are nice but I’d like to see more journaling bibles ( ESV-NASB-NKJV) that has the reference with it…but thank you for this see through

Thanks so much. I have started using my NKJV JOURNALS for each book. They now come in almost all translations at this point. Font is nice and big, and they are interleaved with thicker paper. Enough space for notes and art. I like to do light watercolor, and watercolor pencils. Also love soft pastels and pastel pencils. Still working out the best way to seal soft pastels. I’ve heard of using Spectra Fix, in a very fine mister bottle. Any suggestions welcome! God bless!

I have the same NLT Inspire for colouring and light note taking and the NKJV journal the Word Reference for study notes :)

Thanks for sharing your video 🙂

Ive used my crossway esv journaling bible for 4 years. Its what i started with. Just did my first entry in the illustrating bible by dayspring (psalms and proverbs) and im IN LOVE with the larger margins!!! i use mixed media in my bibles. Esv holds up SUPER well!

I do agree. The Inspire Bibles that are giant print are exceptionally large print. The books are large too but worth it if needed for this purpose.

Thank you

The keepsake Bible looks nice and is great way to help with kids with engaging in the Bible.

I like My Creative Bible. At the time I bought it, I wanted a coloring/journaling bible in the KJV translation because the poetic flavor of the language along with the art just appealed to me. I also liked the bright pink cover with the roses painted along the pages. :) I don't have any of the other bibles for comparison, so I couldn't say if it's better or worse than any of those.

I love My Creative Bible too! Chose it for the translation and the line art, zero regrets. The lettering in this Bible is very appealing to me, I love to color in it.

Can you link your videos on how to decorate the page edges ( like the one with the painted green leaves on the page edges)?

I love reading my Bibles as well taking notes I have a world bible school study edition journaling bible and a Spanish bible as well king James bible can I write in them with a Bic stic pen or with a pompom pen or with a regular pencil

I want to get that first chapters insert for the illustrating bible! Where did you get it?

Which illustrating Bible would you recommend? Would you recommend getting the whole one? If not, which of the smaller ones would you recommend for the purpose of using the space for creative purposes or for notes/studying?

In English, I have a KJV My Creative Bible, an ESV Interleaved Bible and a CSB She Reads Truth Bible. The one I used the most was the My Creative Bible, because I bought it first and went wild with tip-ins and mixed media. My Interleaved has become some sort of a commonplace book, slowly collecting quotes for a lifetime. I haven't started working on the She Reads Truth Bible, it is soooo beautiful I'm afraid to ruin it. Which is nonsense, of course. 🙂 I could never ruin the ethernal Word of God. In Portuguese, I have a NAA Verdadeira Identidade, a NVT para Anotações e Esboços and a huge ACF Margens Grandes. I love them all. My current everyday carry is NVT. Cute enough, portable enough, single column, readable print and good plain margins for notes. I used Verdadeira Identidade for about two years before that and it served me well, but now the gospels are too crowded with highlights for new notes, so I switched to NVT para Anotações e Esboços. Still trying to figure out how I wanna use the ACF Margens Grandes, it is simply too immense to carry around.

What a great showcase of Journaling Bibles! I have 3 Inspire Bibles. The one I like most is the Inspire Large Print Catholic Bible even though I am not Catholic. More space and larger font. I am a Bible Collector, so the creative side of me is drawn to highly visual Bibles. Your presentation was spot on! 🌄 New Subscriber 🌺

I don't have any bibles with more than about 2 inches ("Journal the Word") but when it comes to note taking, I tend to use "The Annotatable Bible". I think the margins are around 2 inches, and there's also space between lines for notes. It is a multi-volume bible but probably has more space for notes than any other bible. And the covers are nice!

I think they may have run out of stock and are getting a new round made but Bibles take about 6 months to produce hence the reason it appears to be taking a while. Also, that flap with strap style comes on a few different “insides”, so it could be one is discontinued and the one you see is new to come! Hop on the guide I have linked below the video as you can look at my guide and search Amazon or ChristianBook for some of these which they will have extra stock of. Xx

But what if God LOVES it? What if God loves His children spending time drawing their thoughts about what they read? What if God's Spirit is talking to you as you read, and you have a space to write what He said? A place to record your question WITH the verse? What if that was His reason for getting His word off scrolls, out of the church, and into the hands of each member--so you can have conversations and not just read words? The ideal Bible for me would be loose-leaf so I could add note pages when and where I needed them. I like keeping my notes WITH my Bible wherever I am, and carrying separate journals keeps me hauling a backpack. I take notes on every sermon, and that is enough extra! Journaling keeps me connected to and IN my Bible.
