The Bible has always been a book that demands respect. You carry it carefully, use it wisely, and ever-so-gently turn it’s pages. I always thought these actions were out of reverence and that may be partially true, but the truth is-the Bible is a rather fragile book. It’s easily destroyed by spills, tears, and dare I say- toddlers. The Bible needed protection. Until now…
Meet the Waterproof Bible. It’s a Bible of epic proportions. A Bible with a whole new set of commandments…
1. Thou shalt enjoy a Slurpee while reading the Bible.
Oh yeah. Can you imagine the bliss of reading the best Book ever and drinking a cool orange dream? You can do that without any anxiety that the sticky orange mess might get on your Bible.
2. Thou shalt read the Bible while enjoying God’s creation.
Don’t worry about the dirt, the grass, or the bug guts… they wipe right off.
3. Thou shalt let the baby read the Bible during lunch.
You know, because He needs to learn God’s word just as much as the rest of us…
4. Thou shalt brush your teeth while reading your Bible.
So helpful on those days when the alarm failed to go off and you know better than to head out the door without a little Jesus time. No worries. The toothpaste comes right off.
5. Thou shalt color in your Bible
Maybe this never happens at your house. Someone leaves out the crayons and the baby thinks the color red will go perfect in Zephaniah? Ok, well that happens at my house… No fear, a little soap and water and the crayon marks come right off.
6. Thou shalt store your sandwich in the Bible
It’s absolutely imperative to be prepared. You never know when you will need a little peanut butter sandwich. Reading the Bible can make you awfully hungry! And when you are done…the peanut butter wipes right off. Sweet, huh?
7. Thou shalt read you Bible in the middle of the creek.
Isn’t it great to know that it’s no big deal if you drop it in the water? The Bible dries in seconds and you can keep right on reading.
8. Thou shalt tear out your favorite page of the Bible and hang it on the wall.
What? Your kids don’t try this? Forunately…this Bible is indestructible. No one can remove their favorite- or not so favorite parts.
9. Thou shalt read the Bible during your bubble bath.
No more worrying about your book falling in the bath! Now you can read God’s word while you unwind! Or for those of you who find the first picture to be only a dream…you can read the Bible while the kids take a bubble bath! It floats!
10. Thou shalt take your Bible EVERYWHERE!
That’s right. Now you can take your Bible camping, biking, and even to your favorite homeschool convention. It won’t bend, rip, or wear out.
Seriously, this Bible rocks. It’s lightweight, the pages turn easily and it’s virtually indestructible. You can write in it and highlight without bleeding. It even floats…you know, for when baby throws it in the pool because you had to help someone go to the bathrom.
In a house with 4 little people, this Bible receives a warm welcome! Anyone would enjoy the freedom that the Waterproof Bible provides, but outdoor people will be especially thrilled. Oh, and can you imagine how wonderful it would be if every soldier had one?
The Waterproof Bible is very reasonably priced at 44.95 (for the camo one that we picked out.) You will also find a variety of translations and covers available.

Girrrrl, you are seriously creative. <3
Thanks.
We had a blast with this Bible. You should have seen the look on the lady’s face at the park when I told Leah to pour the orange drink on the Bible!
Super cute entry! I bet that was such a fun photo shoot. I wish my mom let me drop peanut butter sandwiches in books when I was little!
They were quite shocked and amazed when I walked in and poured a cup of water on the Bible. When I told Rachel to smash the peanut butter sandwich into the Bible she said, “mom, that’s just wrong!”
Love this! Post and product
Oh I would Love this so I don’t have to fear my toddler tearing my Bible apart anymore! The peanut butter sandwich pic is hilarious!
I like the toothpaste idea. That stuff is sticky. If it can get through that, we have a winner!
I would LOVE the outside reading without worry!!
Love it! Smiled the whole way through this post
I personally would love the bubble bath one, but who am I kidding? My version of a bubble bath is sitting in the floor reading while my kids are in the tub playing with bubbles! Guess that means that if I had a waterproof Bible I would be able to read it while I supervised bathtime 
Hubby was very excited to discover them. Apparently keeping a Bible with him in the car presents a lot of hazards.
Love the bubble bath but I am thinking this would be a great gift for my missionary friends! They preach in at least one church with no roof! Rain or shine, they could share the gospel. How about baptisms in the river? Yep! They could hold the bible without fear of dropping it!
Oh.my.word! My boys could SO use this Bible! I wonder if the spine holds up well. And do not forget floating on a mat in the pool! Quote and float!
We have had it for about 6 weeks and used it pretty much exclusively. We’ve also really abused it. So far, no signs of wear on the spine or anywhere else!
I would love that I could take this Bible ANYWHERE! I wouldn’t have to worry about it getting ruined stuffed in a bag or purse right alongside toys and crayons and snacks.
I would just use it with abandon with and around my kids- that’s saying a lot right there! But the bubble bath would be a nice touch, also. Never even dared to think of doing that with a Bible. Thanks for the review & giveaway.
This is brilliant!! I have had a page or two ripped out of my Bible along with some sticky hands wanting to read me a page from my Bible (or a Babble as my 2 year old calls it). This is brilliant!
I would love to take my bible in the bubble bath… or the middle of a creek! Lovely!
LOVE this waterproof Bible. With two boys and baby on the way, this would be a wonderful addition to our home! Thank you for the review.
What a novel idea!
I just loved this article! I had no idea such a thing was out there. I love to read everywhere, so being able to take my bible ANYWHERE, and share it with the children without constant worry is such a blessing! My favorite commandment to follow is the 1st commandment “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” Glory be to God, there are no others! Thank you for the wonderful article.
#2 Reading it outside
Would love to win this. It would come in hand with my three ilttles. No more excuses for not being able to read it for fear that it will get ruined.
Why, “Thou shalt take thy Bible everywhere” of course… especially in a Teach Them Diligently bag!!!
I would definitely love the bubble bath commandment!
Love that it’s virtually indestructible. Let’s just say certain kiddos got ahold of mine and it’s now missing a few pages.
I’ve looked at these in the book store and appreciate the review!
Thou shalt read your Bible during your bubble bath!
Great review and I love the pics! This bible looks pretty awesome!
How amazing is that Bible!
Thou shalt read the Bible while enjoying God’s creation! Everything is better outside.
Reading the Bible in the bathtub! I love that.
Thou shalt let your dirty, grubby boys hold the Bible during read aloud time, instead of the clean, “I won’t rip the page” sister all of the time. This would be perfect for our family of three girls and six boys!
This Bible looks AMAZING!!! now no excuses for not diving into Gods word!!!!
Waterproof Bible!! My kids would LOVE a couple…we have so many messy Bible readers, and one crazy fun toddler to help us with testing out our own copy!! Thanks!
I love the idea of carrying it everywhere with me. I have a bible app on my phone, but there is just something about actually having pages to turn that makes reading the Bible so much more real to me.
Thou shall read the Bible in the bubble bath…genius I think that all the time!
If you only knew how many half torn children’s Bible’s and children’s Prayer books are lying around my house at this very minute. My kids are tough on books in general, but my six year old has autism and often forgets to put away her books until after her brother has ripped the cover off when he was running through the room and slipped on the book. smh… This Bible is genius for kids who are tough on books.
#2 It would be great to be able to take a Bible outside and read without worry.
Thanks for the informative review with humor, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Reading the Bible in the bubble bath would be great. I’ve lost a good many books attempting this very thing…
I have to admit, I couldn’t decide if I’d rather read the Bible outside enjoying God’s creation or while sitting specifically in a creek!! That is awesome! I loved, loved, loved your “photo ops.”
I’d love number 9!
Oh, my goodness! Why didn’t I sign up for this one?!?! I never even thought about reading during bath time or the sticky fingerprints. I’d love #9!
I have wanted one of these for a long time!
#10, sorry!
Thou shalt enjoy a slurpee (or come other cold drink like a frappucino) while reading the Bible.
I love #9… I don’t have to lean to the side of the tub to enjoy my quiet time!
#9 THOU SHALL READ YOUR BIBLE WHILE TAKING A BUBBLE BATH!!!
Is there anyone else out there that finds their only alone time is after EVERYONE else is in bed? (or before they wake up) – My favorite time to read is late at night while taking a bath….and I have not dared to bring my Bible to the tub for obvious reasons! ….until now – if I win.
How incredibly wonderful!!!! I NEED this!!!
Thank you for offering this giveaway!
My kids LOVE bath time. The waterproof bible would be the best addtion!!!
#9! I can’t remember the last time I had time to lounge in the tub and read!
Thou shalt take your Bible everywhere!
the coloring in the Bible. We homeschool and our 5 yr old leaves crayons out from time to…and out 20 month likes to find them…then we find his art everywhere
Oh Cool! I told my church’s Military Mission about this!
I would like #10 the most! I always worry that if we take our Bible outside or on our nature walks, one of my boys will somehow mess it up. This Bible would be perfect for us!
Okay, you’ve got my attention. This is pretty interesting.
Just curious if you had posted the winner somewhere?
Thanx
I just announced it in the Rafflecopter above! It will be on Facebook sometime tomorrow, too.
