When I was twelve years old, my mom purchased my first makeup products for me: CoverGirl® Clean Liquid Makeup in 110 Classic Ivory and a black (self-sharpening!) eyeliner pencil. I wore that duo, along with an iconic pink and green tubed mascara, for a decade-plus. And then one day, I realized I could try a different liquid makeup. I surveyed the Target® cosmetics aisle until I found a new-to-me product that delivered the same coverage as my mom’s signature foundation with added benefits. Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and SPF 30 could be accessed in a single bottle—all I had to do was try it. If your Bible reading routine is steady, but not quite engaging, or if the way you read God’s Word hasn’t changed since you were introduced to the idea a long time ago, is it time to try a new approach? There could be added benefits waiting for you in the margins of a study Bible. You don’t have to wait a decade to find out—today, I’ll share some of the features and tools in a study Bible designed for deeper understanding of God’s Word.

Study Notes
Visuals: Maps, Charts, Photos & Timelines
Visual aids in a study Bible are your cue to pause and absorb the significance of the passage. Charts take complicated bits of information, like genealogies, and compile it into at-a-glance graphics for easy reference and study. Photos bring context to subject matter, and maps help you to wrap your head around the journeys and experiences people in Scripture had. Visuals in a study Bible bring life to the words you read to remind you that these were real events that happened to real people.
