Finally room to take my notes from Bible in a year!

After doing the Bible in a Year I had moved on to some of the study plans in the Ascension app. My Bible was starting to look crazy! I wanted one with more space but loved this Bible so much I never ordered one. I was delighted when it was announced they made a note taking version and ordered the same day it was available. I am so pleased. Same quality you would expect from Ascension always!

Beautiful bible

This Note Taking Bible has transformed my study experience, allowing me to engage deeply with scripture. Its spacious margins invite creativity, encouraging me to jot down insights, prayers, and reflections. This personalized touch enhances my connection to God's word, making each passage unforgettable.
It lays flat and the print is perfect size.
It’s so well made and the color tabs helps me navigate it quickly.

Perfect Gift

I love reading and using my Great Adventure Bible. I bought another one to give as a Christmas gift to someone who will be coming into full communion with the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil.

Large Tome of Quality Craftsmanship

I purchased the Notetaking version after falling in love with the regular Leatherlike, and hope to use it as I go along with the podcast. The Notetaking version is 3" thick and quite heavy, making it something that will likely be desk-bound whereas I'd hoped to take it to Bible studies or coffee shops. The paper quality supports improved bleed-through control and the text font is crisp well sized. The "Key Event" headers are helpful and the timeline pages are great as well. I do wish the width of the Bible had been published in its item description though, otherwise thickness is the only complaint I have with this rendition.

Great Adventure Bible premium Edition

Ascension Press has the honor of publishing the first truly premium goatskin leather Bible! I have been posting on various forums and blogs for the last 18 years about the lack of a premium Catholic Bible and it has arrived! This is a beautiful Bible and worth every penny of the $125 asking price! Well done Ascension!
