We live in a world that feels anything but peaceful most days. That’s exactly why The Peace of God Bible spoke to me before I even opened it. From the title to the very first devotional, this Bible is a gentle reminder that we were made for peace—peace with God and peace with one another.
This is no ordinary Bible. Edited by Dr. Jeremiah Johnston, it’s designed to help readers trace the theme of peace throughout Scripture from Genesis to Revelation. The story of the Bible really is the story of peace lost and peace restored through Christ. And as you read, you start to notice it everywhere.
Each day includes a short devotional and a “Peace Note”. Quick, powerful insights that make you pause and think. They’re wonderful for daily reading, whether you’re starting your morning quietly or winding down before bed. The devotions connect Scripture to everyday life in a way that feels calm and encouraging, not rushed or complicated.
I especially appreciated the book introductions, which point out how peace plays a part in each section of the Bible. It changes how you read the stories and you start to see how God has been offering restoration and wholeness from the very beginning. There are also articles scattered throughout that go deeper into what the peace of God actually is, how to recover it when life has worn you thin, and how to live it out in relationships.
A few practical features stood out, too:
365 devotionals and peace notes—simple but meaningful daily reflections
Topical indexes that make it easy to study how peace shapes your relationships
Concise concordance and cross-references to dig deeper
Readable NKJV Comfort Print® (9.5-point) that’s easy on the eyes
Line-matched, double-column layout that keeps the pages clean and readable
This edition is published by Thomas Nelson and available in hardcover or brown Leathersoft™—both lovely and made to last. It would make a thoughtful gift, especially for someone who needs encouragement in anxious or uncertain times.
If your heart’s been craving calm or your soul feels stretched thin, The Peace of God Bible is a gentle companion to guide you back to still waters. It’s more than just reading—it’s recovering the completeness we were meant to live in, and being equipped to share that peace with others.
