“This is yet another beautiful resource from Crossway that encourages God’s people to read, think, write, and engage with God’s wonderful Word!

“Decades ago, I remember reading for the first time about Jonathan Edward’s Blank Bible. The simplicity and genius of compiling a Bible with blank space inserted for reflective notes inspired me. There is reading the Bible, and there is meditative study of the Bible. The former is good; the latter is life-changing. Crossway’s ESV Spiral-Bound Journaling Bible follows in the footsteps of Edwards by providing a wonderful tool for true meditative study of the Word of God. Read the Word to study the Word; study the Word to meditate upon the Word; meditate upon the Word to be changed by the Word.”—Jason Helopoulos, Senior Pastor, University Reformed Church, East Lansing, Michigan; author, Covenantal Baptism; The New Pastor’s Handbook; and The Promise
