In many families the Bibles are handed down from generation to generation. When we hold these Bibles in our hands, it forms a special connection to those who previously held it. A warm and meaningful Kimo, Kim. Best wishes in the contest!

Ah, this is sweet, Kim! My mom also has a worn out Bible and is such a faithful, strong Christian. She has been such a great example to me over the years, too! God bless. :)
