Look no further for an extensive journaling Bible round-up to help you select the Bible that is perfect for you by the end of this post.
So many people are out there wanting to try this Bible Journaling experience that so many are speaking of now, but they become overwhelmed at the thought of which Bible to choose and which one is just right for them. Don’t let that fear get in the way of keeping you from enjoying this wonderful adventure.
I have an extensive journaling Bible round-up that will cover the basics of the most popular journaling Bibles out there. For many people, a specific translation is make or break for a particular Bible. I will share with you the translation for each one along with the width of the margins so you will know exactly how much room you have to illustrate. I will also be sharing the highlights of each one as well. By the end of this post, you will be able to select the Bible that is perfect for you to get you started right away.
If you have absolutely no clue what I am talking about and would love to know more, then read more here to find out where to get started with Bible Journaling for beginners. You can also find a growing collection of Bible journaling supplies once you decide on your Bible to get you going in no time.
