Christians have unique ways of studying God’s Word. Some mark up their Bibles with notes and underlining, while other Bible students prefer to take notes in a journal. I am in the first camp and feel like I have created my own individualized study Bible by practicing the habit of marking each instance when a verse really speaks to my heart or jotting down important notes from sermons. My Bible is now an invaluable reference tool when preparing a lesson on any particular topic for Living Strategically.

I thought it would be interesting to compile a list of chapters from my custom study Bible that have the most markings and notes from years of usage. These chapters of inspiration cover a variety of topics from many different books of the Bible. Through this list, I believe you will uncover at least one hidden gem that you won’t find in conventional Bible study material! I hope you find it engaging and thought provoking.
