If you’ve been here for any length of time, you know I am a bible collector. I love bibles – they contain God’s Word after all. I love different translations and how each one can speak to you differently. I’ve got quite the collection of bibles, and to be honest some I use more than others. But it never stops me from wanting to grow my collection. I’m delighted to share a recent addition to my bible collection with you today!

The CSB Day-by-Day Chronological Bible features a narrative approach to the Bible, arranging the full text into a clear chronological reading plan with daily readings guided by Dr. George Guthrie.
In this unique plan, the books, chapters, and verses of the Bible are organized for readers in three main acts to track the story of Scripture from beginning to end. This format is designed to draw readers into the biblical narrative, helping them apply it in their own lives. Unlike most other chronological Bibles, this arrangement is not date-specific (e.g. "January 1"), so you can jump into the plan at any point in the calendar year.FEATURES
- 52 weeks of readings (six readings per week) in chronological order
- Scripture presented in three main acts (God's Plan for All People; God's Covenant People; God's New Covenant People) and seventeen total scenes
- An introduction for each act and scene to provide context for the story
- Durable Smyth-sewn lay-flat binding
- Single-column text format with wide margins for notes
- 9-point type size
- Black-letter text
- Ribbon marker for easy referencing between pages
- Presentation page for gift-giving
The CSB Day-by-Day Chronological Bible features the highly readable, highly reliable text of the Christian Standard Bible(R) (CSB). The CSB captures the Bible's original meaning without sacrificing clarity, making it easier to engage with Scripture's life-transforming message and to share it with others.
My Perspective
The thing I appreciate the most about this bible is that is doesn’t have dates in it. It does have a reading plan, but it is by weeks and days with no specific date attached. That means I can start it whenever I want to! No need to wait until the beginning of a year (which many people tend to do!). And I like that the reading plan is throughout the bible, so you don’t have to flip pages to see what you need to read each day.
The weekly summaries are great and include a lot of insight! I almost wish they were daily, but I understand why they lumped it all together. They all point to Jesus – and isn’t that what the bible is all about? Pointing us to Jesus? I thought this was a great reminder of that, something we all need in our daily lives.
One thing I wish were different – having the words of Jesus in red. This is my own pet peeve about bibles, and I’m sure it doesn’t bother most people. I just like seeing His Words stand out on the page. But other than that, I really like this bible. I think it’s a welcome addition to my collection. You can use it for it’s daily reading plan, or just use it to read at your own pace. Either way, it’s packed with a lot of good information in a translation that is easy to read.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. I was not required to write a favorable review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This Bible looks great! I, too, prefer Jesus’s words in red. But it’s not a deal breaker. CSB Bibles are some of my favorite. Great review!
