#BIBLIE JOURNALY HOW TO#

LetвЂ™s answer the main question we have all been waiting forвЂ¦ how to Bible journal! This process can be summed up in three main steps:ДЎ) SPEND TIME WITH GOD. When it comes to journaling space in a Bible, there are two main things I would look for: how many columns of journaling space you want and if your want an interleaved one (which means every other page is blank for plenty of journaling space). (MSG) The Message: I donвЂ™t use this version to dig super deep it the Word, more of just translating the text to understand it better!вЂ‹ (CSB) Christian Standard Version: I havenвЂ™t dived deep into this one, but IвЂ™ve heard great things about it! (ESV) English Standard Version: This one I use sometimes, and itвЂ™s another great one! (NLT) New Living Translation: I donвЂ™t use this one often, but I think I used this one before the Bible I currently have. (NIV) New International Version: This one is my go-to because, for me, itвЂ™s the easiest one to understand! As you choose your new Bible, I recommend doing your research because there are many Bibles out there with their unique style, so find one that works for you! Here are some versions, what they stand for, and some of my thoughts on each of them: I picked this one because it had a single-column journaling space, verses to color (because I was just starting and didnвЂ™t know what to expect, I picked one with verses to color), and NIV was the version I was used to and understood best. Now that we know what Bible journaling is all about, itвЂ™s time to pick Bible! For some people, choosing a Bible for Bible journaling can be challenging, but itвЂ™s doesnвЂ™t have to be! When I was researching for a new Bible when I started Bible journaling in 2019, there are two main things I looked for:Д¬urrently, I have the NIV Beautiful Word Coloring Bible. Bible journaling is just something a little extra! DonвЂ™t worry about the вЂњaestheticвЂќ so much- remember to ask yourself how you can APPLY the Word into your life! GodвЂ™s Word is SO beautiful by itself. So thatвЂ™s what Bible journal is all about, and for the new people on this journey, I want to remind you this: your Bible pages donвЂ™t have to look pretty or perfect for you to get into the Word or to grow closer to God. It has helped me document my faith, reflect on what God is teaching me, and as a visual learner, it has helped me understand the text a bit more as well! вЂ‹First up, what is Bible journaling? To put it simply, from what Shanna Noel (the founder of the Bible journaling community and Illustrated Faith) says, вЂњBible journaling is an exciting new way to engage with GodвЂ™s Word by connecting your faith with your creativity.вЂќ ItвЂ™s a simple as that- creativity and documenting your faith all combined into one! IвЂ™ve been Bible journaling since March/April of 2019, and I can genuinely say it has changed my life.
