WHAT IS A TRAVELING BIBLE?

DWITW’s traveling Bible is a special Bible that is passed between women all over our city and filled with our notes and illustrations. It is an ESV journaling Bible that was designed exclusively for DWITW by Hosanna Revival. 

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The Traveling Bible will be housed at the DWITW office located at Apex Community Church. Each woman receiving the Bible will pick it up from the office during the staff’s office hours or at a pre-arranged time. She can choose a page (or a few pages!) to journal on, mark her page(s) with her name and the date, and then bring it back to the office for the next woman. Bonus points if you share a photo on social media with the tag @daytonwomenintheword and #dwitwtravelingBible!

HOW LONG DO I KEEP IT?

The Bible will change hands every month, so twelve women will be able to enjoy and journal in the Bible during the year. Each month’s recipient will pick it up during the first week of the month, spend the next two weeks reading and journaling, and then drop it back off to the DWITW office during the last week of the month.

WHO IS IT FOR?

It’s for all of us! If you’re a woman in Dayton who is reading the Word of God, you can be part of this special project. Whether you’re an artist or not, we want you to contribute to this Bible! 

WHAT CAN I DO IN THE BIBLE?

You can write, draw, paint, or watercolor, use stickers, stamps, and ink pads (Staz-On is a good no-bleed brand), markers, tabs, scrapbook paper and glue, washi tape-- whatever you like! Try to find items that won’t bleed through the Bible pages so that the page opposite yours can be used (you can find no-bleed pens from Sharpie and Staedtler in most office or craft supply areas). We only ask that however you choose to embellish, the biblical text is still able to be read in its entirety. If you have specific questions about techniques or types of materials to use, email our team at dwitwBible@gmail.com
