The Kindle travels very well, and with many versions of the Bible available free, or very inexpensive, it just makes sense to have one or more on your favorite electronic book reader.
It's kind of nice knowing the Number One Most Read Book in the world is handy for inspiration, or just plain reading. You will never lose your place with your Kindle. An additional bonus with the Kindle is that is is also searchable. And I mean quickly searchable. While the Bible is open on your Kindle, type in a phrase or word, or chapter, toggle the 5-way switch to the right until Find is highlighted. Press in on the 5-way switch to begin the search. You may see several pages of results, depending on what you are searching for. Toggle the 5-way switch up or down until the one you want is underlined. Press in on the 5-way to go to that result. You can also press the Back button to return to your search if you want to explore the possibilities more. I wish I could tell you exactly how to search, but I can't. I can say that practice will make searching easier much sooner. You can't hurt a thing with a little practice, and you will find your Kindle to be the most patient practice tool you will ever use. So, go for it! And Enjoy!
Don't have a Bible yet on your Kindle? Go to the Amazon store on your Kindle and do a search using the word Bible as your search word. You will see quite a few. Browse through them until you find a free one if you like. Or your can go to amazon.com on your computer and search the Kindle store for a Bible. Look on the right side of the search page with bibles on it, toward the top... for sorting choices.. Choose Sort by Price: Low to High. Here is a jungle-search.com search (under the Kindle Search tab) I did using just the word bible as my search word, and pricing from 0 to $2.00.
