Having just closed our annual Bible reading challenge, we had the privilege of giving away a set of ESV Old Testament Scripture Journals for the grand prize. We are deeply grateful to Crossway Bibles for providing the grand prize for this year’s challenge.
These Scripture journals are remarkable, and I buy them for my family whenever we have a new sermon series, Bible study, or Sunday school book study. The text is printed only on the left-hand page, with ample space between lines for marking it up. The right-hand page is blank except for being lined for notes.
Each book of the Bible comes in a separate volume, so you can take your Proverbs journal to church for sermon notes, and your 1-2 Kings journal to small group. They take up a lot of space on the shelf, but not very much in your bag on the go.
These sets are outstanding and are the sort of Bible I wish I had when I was younger (before I began taking all my notes digitally). My only beef is that I wish there were a version for left-handed people (with the Scripture text on the right-hand page), but I understand there probably aren’t enough of us right-minded Bible customers to justify the cost of production.
I highly recommend you check them out. Find them at Westminster, Amazon, or Crossway.

We have given away over 100 of these as we started a new sermon series in 1 & 2 Peter. We have about 180 adults attending so that was encouraging. One of our people made a sticker for the inside cover with instructions on how to best use it in conjunction with the sermon series. In
