books of the bible illustrated

Oh. My. Word. So this is a little different than my typical post, but I just couldn’t resist when I ran across these prints by designer Jim LePage. These prints are part of a series called “Word”, they are illustrations of all of the books of the bible. Incredible! Even more I love the story behind these prints (read it in the designers own words here). He basically created this as a way to discipline himself to read the bible. I totally struggle with the same thing. I often times put daily bible reading on the bottom of my list of things to do, in favor of things I “enjoy” more. He came up with a way to teach himself discipline by doing something he enjoys along with the reading… And I have found that when I set aside time for reading the Bible, quickly the feelings of “I have to read” turn into “I want to read the word, and spend time with Jesus today”. Love this!

On a side note, if you are looking for artwork for your home, these would be incredible and they are for sale here (so reasonably priced too!). I am thinking about purchasing some for my husband’s (hopefully) soon to be home office.
