A few months ago I began a quest for a Journal Bible after following several blogs highlighting ideas and benefits of keeping one.

How the Gospel Changes Things and Bible Study Ideas
Have you ever had the insatiable need to hear from God? I had this need earlier in the week to abandon all distractions and get alone with God and my Bible.
