The FontFeed showcased a provocative and, in my opinion, a refreshingly dynamic take on the cover art for a contemporary edition of the Bible. The colors are vibrant and engaging, which reminds people that the Bible is a living text pulsing with lessons for 21st-century readers. And, the depictions of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden are playful and allusive, meant to conjure more questions than to answer them with overly weighty symbolism that would have bogged down the spaciousness of the art work. If you're interested in opining on what the graphic designers missed or got right, Stand Firm, a blog devoted to "traditional Anglicanism in America," has an active comment thread worth reading.
As Carl Rush, the founder of the UK-based design agency Crush that created the cover, points out, their intention was to make it the "must have accessory for any non card carrying Christian." My regret? I can't find a place where I can actually buy the tome. Help!

These beautiful antique books are precious to me.
According to the date inside the bible with its dried pressed flowers its
nearly 132 years old, the little Psalm book and the beautifully illustrated
Bible Lilies book must be around the same age.

In the midst of this pre-Christmas madness we need to remember what Christmas is all about. Whatever your faith, religion or belief, I believe if we put others before ourselves the world would be a much happier place to live ♥
However or wherever you spend Christmas, I hope its a good one!
NB I ought to apologise for being a bit slow on the comments at the moment, Miss A has kindly shared her virus with me :S I am not feeling so good at the moment!
Look closer and you will see that these are not scriptures. This is text handwritten by Daddy many years ago. He inserted blank pages into the front of this Bible so he could expound certain scriptures. He even wrote some words and phrases in bold and italics.

lovingly kept inside it.
Psalm 91:11 is often referred to as a verse of divine protection and assurance. It promises that God will command His angels to guard the faithful "in all thy ways," indicating an encompassing, active care from God. The term "charge" implies that this protection is a divine mandate, not a passive hope. This verse comforts believers by affirming that God's protection is both intentional and comprehensive. Whether one is navigating physical dangers, emotional valleys, or spiritual warfare, the promise holds: God's heavenly messengers are dispatched to safeguard those who place their trust in Him.

I'm grateful for a grandmother who wore out every Bible she ever owned.

This Bible has been in my family for over 200 years. It came to the US from Switzerland in 1835 when they immigrated.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. -John 1:1
I will be with you always, until the end of the age.
Matthew 28:20
This has been a favorite bible verse of mine for a long time, and when I started thinking about time quotes that I wanted to go with this photo, I felt like that verse fit better for me than any quote would. I really love thinking about the fact that God created time for humans to use because we can't handle seeing all of the events of our lives all at once. He didn't create it so we could stress out about planning our lives out years in advance. Take advantage of each moment you're given, one at a time.
So yeah. This is a really personal photo for me. I'm glad I ended up having time to take it today :)
A children's bible that I read several times as a child which gave me a passing familiarity with many of the biblical stories. Mum's family Bible from Holland given to her by her grandmother.
The Good News Bible that was given to me when I finished Sunday School.
My religious beliefs are a bit, um, eclectic, to say the least but these three books have had a huge influence on me.
