CSB Lifeway Women’s Bible Review

CSB Lifeway Women’s Bible is a classy looking women’s Bible. Of course the real treasure is the Words inside. I have to admit that I LOVE a Bible that aesthetically pleasing to look at. You can purchase the Bible here.

You have four different designs to choose from. I choose the gray/mint Leathertouch. The two toned Bible has a light gray denim look that wraps around the spine and the cover is a solid mint color. It also comes with a hard case slip cover.

The inside pages are very pleasing to the eyes in a soft muted tone throughout

I’m not as familiar with the Christian Standard Bible CSB as I am with other translations. Looking through the translation looks pretty accurate. The Bible flows/reads easily and is suitable for all ages in my opinion. In the Introduction it gives you how the names of God are translated from the original Hebrew to the English.

As a women’s Bible it has several study and devotional material from some well known Christian ladies.  There are other articles throughout on certain passages and topics that would be relevant to women. You can find the different topics listed in the Bible.

Every book has a Introduction page with your typical author, history, summary, and highlights Key Verses. Off to the side you have timeline. There are charts throughout the Bible.

The pages are a Single Column format  at a 9.5 font. You have plenty of margin spaces for notes. Two book marks in the Bible.

Another feature is three different reading plans from a 90-Day, Yearly, and a 3-Year Reading plan.

I have enjoyed reading my Word from the CSB Lifeway Women’s Bible. I don’t usually do reading plans but I decided to try the 90-Day Reading Plan. It’s been delightful time in the morning.
