Finally found the perfect large font journaling bible (chronological)
I LOVE this bible. I have been waiting so long to get a journaling bible that has a larger font (9.5) and it's so pretty! I've also been wanting a chronological bible for the first time and this bible is all those things combined. I chose the hard cover - it has beautiful leaf patterns on the cover, there are beautiful coloring sections all throughout the Bible - I may just leave as is, since I'm not really into the coloring aspect and they look so pretty as is. I am so happy with my purchase!
Amazing, simple to follow bible! Wonderful purchase!
Such an amazing bible. I have owned numerous bibles, but I have so much trouble getting through them....especially the Old Testament. I found myself having trouble keeping up with a lengthy bible, yet, the “Bible in a Year” series (where you read one page per day for the year) just seemed much too simple. I needed more detail, more context, but also simple motivation to get through. I did a search on Amazon & came across this one. I absolutely love it. For the first time, I look forward to reading, because this bible reads like a story book. I really mean that - everything finally makes sense & I can piece together who is who & what happened, when. And although it is a “bible in a year” concept, each day consists of about 2-4 pages to read. Perfect amount! Not too overwhelming for someone to keep up & not too vague where I feel like I’m not getting enough content. The added notes at the bottom are welcome & really, you can’t go wrong with the NLT version. Pages are definitely thin, but no thinner from any other large bible I’ve owned or seen. So glad I took a chance on this one!
Love This Bible!
As an Anglican priest I've owned MANY bibles over the years. This is easily my all-time favorite for devotional reading. I love everything about it. Because it's a one year bible I read a little every day. Because it's large print it's easy to read. Because it has lined margins I make notes as I go. I love to color in it. And I love that it's chronological: note the psalm of David inserted into 1 Samuel where it occurred. Beautiful! Makes a great gift too.
Love this bible
Love this bible! Some coloring, but not too much. Lots of space for writing notes, or drawing. Laid out more like a book, than a typical bible. This not the bible to take to church, this is the bible to read every day with your cup of coffee and colored pencils.
Well done Tyndale, this Bible is a winner all around!
I have been looking for a Chronological NLT Bible. This one is a delight. Not only is it broken up to into a daily reading format, I love the wide margins, perfect for notes and illustrations. The font is much easier to read than my ESV Single Column Journaling Bible, making it enjoyable and practical for daily study. The drawings are similar, if not the same to some found in my Inspire Bible, just fewer (100+ vs. 400+). That doesn't bother me one bit. I like the additional place for my notes and personal illustrations. And when I'm studying, and I have a moment of meditation, I can color what is already drawn in. The paper has a nice hand to it. It's not a thin onionskin, it feels more like real paper. There is a little ghosting of the print and illustration, but I haven't found that a distraction. The two book markers are helpful, it's nice that they are also two colored, which will help with finding exactly what I marked. The leaf guilding is subtle and attractive. The end papers are have a nice overall design that will be helpful in testing out new art supplies. In the front there is a general time line. I am using this book along with my homeschooled middle and high school children as we cover Ancient history lessons. The timeline is helpful to understand what was happing in the world in conjunction to Bible history. In the back there is a Daily Reading Guide, which will be helpful when I am traveling light and don't care to bring this larger bible along. There is also a scripture reference guide so that when I am looking for a specific bible reference, I can find it. I think this Bible is an excellent value. It cost me about what I would pay for an intensive bible study, but that would only last the duration of the study. This has an entire year, but could be used perpetually. The binding is nice. The pages don't quite fold flat as my ESV does, but that may have more to do with the fact that this one is hardback and that one is leather. It opens enough to easily make notes all the way into the spine. I would buy this again, and also consider it for a gift. It would also be a nice display bible.
Exactly What I Hoped It Would Be
My church is reading through the Bible chronologically this year. Our bookstore sold the paperback NKJV version, but I like a hardcover on my Bible and room to write in the margins and wanted a different translation for this year's read-through. The daily readings go so fast, I find myself reading ahead because I don't want to stop. It's January 8th and I've already finished the readings through the end of January. At this rate, I should be able to read through TWICE this year. (We'll see!) An added benefit is how the pages stay open to the passage I'm reading even if I'm snuggled down under a blanket in my favorite chair sipping from a cup of coffee. I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase.
Thoroughly enjoy the daily readings
NOTE: this is not in Bible format. The description says this, but I saw people were missing that note in the other reviews. It is arranged in a dated, daily reading format so that you can get through the Books of the Bible in one year. It is in chronological order beginning with Genesis, but other books are moved around so that stories that are duplicated are bunched together/combined, so the reader does not have to read them more than once; necessary for getting through all the stories/books in one year. I really have enjoyed it. There are margins on every page that I have been using to write notes and look things up. I have learned a lot.
Will Make You Want to Read Your Bible Daily
It's a very large Bible so you aren't likely to carry it around, but that's the only drawback. Clear fonts, plenty of room to journal and just the right amount of coloring pages. I especially like that the chronological aspect with explanatory notes.
Beautiful Bible in an understanding translation organized in chronological order
This is a beautiful Bible in an understandable translation organized in the order in which events occurred. I love the illustrations at the beginning of each month that can be colored with colored pencils to personalize this most precious book. Also love the columns along the side of each page for notes. I am reading the chronological Bible with over 250 other people from our church and around the world. An incredible experience as we read and share our thoughts, questions and answers. It is quite large and heavy so not too good for traveling.
Very sturdy and practical
I have wanted to read through the Bible in chronological order for awhile. I like the description of this in that it had wide margins to make notes and occasional "drawings" I could color in. It is a hardback Bible and rather large and heavy. I would not recommend taking it back and forth to church. I have it on my kitchen table and I read it every morning with breakfast. My husband says it's a "girly" Bible, I say it's not too frilly and has the features I like. I will be able to use this year after year for my daily Bible reading.
