{Faith Journaling} Challenge #15

Last week, we journaled about different versions of the Bible. This week I thought it would be fun to share:

**When did you get your first Bible? Do you still have it?

Luke 11:28 says "He replied, 'Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.'"

A lady at BSF recently shared the story behind her Bible with me, and it is an AMAZING story that will always be with me. Remember, generations to come will love reading when and how you received your first Bible.

To see all of the journaling questions posted thus far, you can always refer to this post or click on the label "journaling challenge" at the end of this post to see each individual posting in this challenge. Enjoy sharing your faith story! Blessings,

Hi Patter, What a great journaling question this is. I am a 51 year old Christian woman. I got my first Bible when I was 7 years old. I used to go every week (I think it was on Friday), to Mrs. Doty Inmans house. She would tell us stories from the Bible with a felt board and pictures. She taught us scripture verses and helped us learn to memorize them. It was basically a Bible class and at the end she gave me the most beautiful white bible with my name on it in Gold. I still have it to this day. It is not so white any more, as it has survived 2 fires, but it did not burn or singe 1 piece of it. It is just kind of an ivory color from years of aging. Thank you for posting this journaling question. Even though the years have slipped by, this is something still so fresh in my mind and be proud of. Hugs Lori Reinholz
