New Bible encourages creativity

God created us to create, and this beautiful new Bible helps believers draw nearer to the Creator.
The CSB Illustrator’s Notetaking Bible has plenty of room for creativity while studying God’s Word with its wide margins, journaling space, and line-art illustrations throughout. The easy-to-read black, 9.5-point font is a single column.
This Bible also includes two ribbon markers for easy referencing between pages, a concordance, a one-year reading plan, full-color maps, and a gift-giving presentation page.
I have the Cream LeatherTouch version – and it’s lovely! I typically take notes in book-specific journals as our church typically preaches straight through books of the Bible, but I could be easily convinced to start using this beautiful Bible.
With Mother’s Day and graduation approaching, the CSB Illustrator’s Notetaking Bible would make a wonderful gift for your loved ones, especially those who love to doodle, color, and take notes.

Many thanks to Lifeway Christian Resources for providing a free copy of this Bible for this review. These opinions are 100 percent my own.

I think my daughter would love this Bible.
Yay! Thanks for being here and entering.
Penny would love this Bible! She is so creative and artistic and loves journaling/doodling while she is doing her Bible study.
I love that! I’m a notetaker, so I understand how that probably helps her focus on the messages.
Love this – really cute doodling options.
Yes! It’s full of options!
I love journaling Bibles! Mine, that I have had for about seven years, is falling apart, so I would love to have one like this!
A well-used Bible is a gift! Thanks for sharing.
I’d love to have this Bible. I’ve never seen one with both large print and wide margins for journaling.
Yes! I haven’t either. Definitely a good one!
