A Journaling Bible is a special edition of the Bible designed with extra space in the margins or on dedicated pages for you to write notes, prayers, reflections, or create art. Unlike a traditional Bible with very little white space, a journaling Bible invites you to have a two-way conversation with God's Word, creating a treasured record of your personal faith journey.
Why Choose a Journaling Bible?
See our full range of Journaling Bibles below.
A journaling bible is more than just a book; it’s a canvas for your faith. Unlike standard editions, these notetaking bibles provide ruled or blank margins that allow you to record prayers, insights, and sermon notes directly alongside the text. This "active reading" approach is one of the fastest-growing ways to engage deeper with the Word of God.
One of the most common questions we receive is about paper weight. Many of our journalling bibles feature premium, thick cream or white paper (often 38gsm to 50gsm) specifically treated to minimise "ghosting" or ink bleed-through. This makes them the best journaling bibles for women and men who enjoy using microns, coloured pencils, or even light watercolours for creative worship.
We stock journaling editions across all major translations. The NIV Journaling Bible remains a UK favourite for its balance of readability and space. For those preferring a more literal translation, the ESV Journaling Bible (including the famous Interleaved editions) offers a robust layout for serious students of the Word.
Q: What is the difference between a Wide Margin Bible and a Journaling Bible?
A: While similar, a Wide Margin Bible usually has smaller, unlined margins (approx. 1-2 inches) primarily for text notes. A Journaling Bible often features larger margins (up to 3 inches) and may include ruled lines or dots to guide your writing or artwork.
Q: Which pens are best for a Bible with space for notes?
A: To ensure your notes don't bleed through to the other side, we recommend using pigment-based pens like Pigma Microns, or specialised "Bible Highlighters" that don't use wet ink.
Q: Do you stock Journaling Bibles in the UK?
A: Yes! Eden.co.uk is a trusted UK supplier. All items listed as "In Stock" are dispatched from our UK warehouse, ensuring you don't have to wait for international shipping to start your creative journey.
