The Good and Beautiful Bible Study - Volume 1 Softcover Reviews

4.9 Rating 491 Reviews
This Bible study is truly helpful and easy to follow. I have tried several other Bible studies, and quit them half way through. Sometimes it’s hard to connect with the material because it’s so dense, but this study does a great job of simplifying the text and really bringing it down to a level of understanding. Not to mention it’s absolutely beautiful. Just the cherry on the top. Would make a great gift idea for anyone! My copy was provided complimentary by the Alabaster influencer program.

Have you ever felt lost while reading the Bible? I most certainly have and sometimes I wonder if I’m receiving the most from what I’ve read. The Good and Beautiful Study Bible from Alabaster, truly helps me with that problem. It stuck out to me for 3 different reasons. 1.) The imagery is so captivating and beautiful, just like the name literally describes! I looked forward to seeing each new photo because who doesn’t like pretty things? 2.) The Bible stories each have a specific theme/perspective to offer! Me pairing that with the full Bible stories allows the messages and themes to resonate with me deeper! 3.) I literally love how the corresponding Book, Chapter, and Verse are listed for each story. Even more so that the “Key Moment” within the stories is listed. Also the reflection after each chapter helps guide me through my thoughts and prayers! The Good and Beautiful Study Bible is worth every minute you’ll spend with it. I also should mention that I’m sharing it with my husband and children (10,7,4) and I’ve had great ideas for implementing it into our lifestyle. The kids have their bibles to read the full stories on their levels as me and Dad read over the Study Bible. and as a homeschooling family a great activity for each age is to recreate the artwork shown in the Bible! I’m very thankful that Alabaster Co. gifted me a complimentary copy of this book through their Influencers Program!

I believe one of the great fights on this generation is the battle for their attention and reflection. Many people today don't know how to create space to ponder life personally, emotionally, and especially, spiritually. This Bible Study invites readers into restful space where they can reflect on the Good and Beautiful nature of the holy scriptures. As a member of the Alabaster's Influencer Program, I am repeatedly left in awe of the intentionality, intricacy, simplicity, and beauty by which Alabaster communicates the gospel. Upon reading my complimentary copy of this study, I was left re-inspired and reignited in my faith. This study masterfully bridges the gap between the past and the present by highlighting ways in which biblical stories relate to our modern day. The mosaic of artwork, guided prompts, questions, and reflections which embody this book invite the reader into a sensory submersive experience that leaves them forever changed. I particularly loved getting to engage in the Pause, Ponder, and Pray sections of each chapter. This book is must-get for anyone who wants to experience the Bible in a profoundly impactful way!

The good and beautiful Bible study is an open invitation to engage with some of the best biblical stories! With the intentional prompts that follow around the reading, it allows for curiosity, conversation, and relationship to form with Jesus. I love the way they ask you to pause, ponder, and pray as you're reading. The structure of the book allows me to have quiet time and rest with God. On top of this, the stunning artwork is a plus!
