Choosing A Bible Cover

Any Bible will last a long time if you keep it safely on the bookshelf and never use it. However if you actually do read it or if you want to take it with you to worship or study a cover has several advantages.

• A Bible cover prolongs the life of your Bible, protecting it from the wear and tear of taking it with you. Even an inexpensive Bible will last longer with a Bible cover.

• Many covers have space to hold your Bible study tools like pens, paper, personal items, etc. keeping them organized for ready use. Look for organizer, purse, and briefcase style covers.

• Bibles can be big—especially study Bibles and large print Bibles. A cover with a handle or strap will make it easier to take your Bible with you to church, Bible study, etc.

• Bible covers are available in a myriad of designs and colors to reflect your style—from basic black to colorful designs. Some covers display Christian symbols and Scripture verses to help you share your faith.

1. How will you use this Bible cover? Christianbook.com stocks Bibles with zippers, handles, organizers, pockets, and backpack straps. Which is right for you?

2. Measure your Bible and use your measurements to select a Bible cover slightly larger than Bible size. If you are a serious note-taker, or if you wish to include a study journal or Bible study book, please allow room as you calculate. Avoid a too-snug fit.

3. Although the primary reason for a Bible cover is to protect your Bible from the elements and daily wear and tear, it is also an aid to organized Bible study, having your materials always in one convenient carry-all for home, church, or school.

4. Choose a case for each Bible, for each season, for each occasion. Professionals, travelers, students, children, and teachers can each find a Bible case to specifically suit their requirements.

5. Bible cover kits often include notepads, pens, magnifiers, highlighters, and bookmarks. The bestselling Wordkeeper covers are created exclusively for Christianbook.com with many convenient Bible cover features.
