The Illustrator's Notetaking Bible

The Illustrator's Notetaking Bible is an HCSB edition made for those that want to draw, paint, and color in their Journaling Bibles. This one has over 600 lightly drawn illustrations that you can color or paint. There's also lots of room to add your own artwork or notes as well. The edition includes lined margin note areas that allow for neat notetaking.

The paper itself feels like the standard 38gsm that's found in most journaling editions. It's bonded leather over board and is available in several colors -- the one I read was simple British tan, so it's an ideal gift. The biblical text is presented in a single column layout with 7.5-8 point font. It also includes HCSB bullet notes, a reading plan, concordance, and maps.

This Bible makes an ideal gift for the adult coloring folks.

My Review of "The Prayer Wheel"

Patton Dodd, Jana Riess, and David van Biema's The Prayer Wheel: A Daily Guide to Renewing Your Faith a Rediscovered Spiritual Practice brings a long-lost diagram that can be used to structure a 28-day discipline of prayer back into the practice of modern Christian spirituality. The diagram was found in a 12th-century German book of gospels that emerged at a rare book dealer in Manhattan in 2015. They begin with a cursory explanation of the wheel's origins but are primarily interested in reviving the use of the wheel to guide and enrich prayer by tying each day to a different thematic element of scripture. In concentric rings representing sections of the Bible and through seven "contemplative paths toward God" arranged like spokes through the rings he wheel uses Christianity's "big ideas" about the Lord's Prayer, the gifts of the Holy Spirit, events in the life of Christ, and the beatitudes to form a progression of prayer.

My Review of "The Tea Planter's Wife"

Dinah Jefferies' The Tea Planter's Wife is a fun novel that vividly depicts the 1920s. Gwendolyn Hooper, her 19-year-old heroine, speaks for an empire-branded breed of gutsy young British women who left the security of England to embark on extraordinary adventures abroad. Not the back-packing, "lonely planet" travels of today, gap-year kids constantly connected with the folks back home via internet and smartphones, and usually safely and predictably back home for good inside a year. Girls like Gwen married men who made their living and fortunes out in the colonies -- or what until very recently had been colonies -- and went out to join them, standing shoulder-to shoulder with their husbands to face down hardship, danger, disease, monsoon, drought, and not least the simmering and sometimes murderous resentment of locals. That makes The Tea Planter's Wife so much more than a love story -- it's a recognition that girls like Gwen had guts, and c

My Review of "How to Be a Perfect Christian"

At first I was a little uncertain about The Babylon Bee's new book, How To Be a Perfect Christian: Your Comprehensive Guide to Flawless Spiritual Living . Even the title betrays so much of what makes the website so popular: Sarcasm and humor. But once I started this book, I simply couldn't put it down! There are some amazing tidbits about doctrine -- which, in an interesting way, makes you start wondering what it is that authentic Christians believe, not the cultural Christians who are the punch-line of nearly every joke in this book. But there's a coloring page to boot! You simply cannot miss this book. I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review here.
