Once you begin it will nourish your soul and connect you to your faith like never before.

So, picture this: You've got your favorite Bible in one hand, maybe its worn from years of love or maybe you are just learning, and in the other, a set of colorful pens ready to bring those sacred words to life. But wait, there's more! Before you start, let's talk essentials: Exactly what you need to get started.

The Right Journal: When it comes to Bible journaling, you'll want a journal specifically designed for the task – one with thick, sturdy pages that can handle your creative outpouring. Look for something that speaks to your style, whether it's minimalist chic or bursting with vibrant colors. You have options, too: you can use a standalone journal with pages for notes, coloring, and reflecting, or you can opt for a journal that's integrated into your Bible itself.
Quality Pens: Ah, pens – the unsung heroes of the journaling world! And one of my obsessions. You don’t really want to know how many pens I have. With that said you will want to Invest in a set of archival-quality pens that won't bleed through the pages of your Bible. Think fine-tipped markers, gel pens, or even colored pencils for that extra pop of flair.
Tabs and Stickers: Make navigating your Bible a breeze with tabs for different books and sections. This was key for me, even though I was raised in the church I have a hard time remembering where in the Bible certain books are. Plus, who doesn't love a good sticker? Sprinkle some inspirational decals throughout your journal for that added dose of motivation.
