Bible study is one of the sweetest times of the day—a chance to slow down, reflect, and connect with God’s Word. But if you’ve ever wanted to bring a little extra creativity to your notes, scripture doodles are the perfect way to do it!
By adding art, lettering, and simple doodles to your Bible notes, you can create pages that are both meaningful and beautiful. This practice isn’t about being an artist—it’s about making your time in Scripture feel more personal, engaging, and memorable.
Why Try Scripture Doodles?
Engagement: Drawing and lettering help you focus and stay present in your study.
Memory Boost: Visuals can make verses stick in your heart and mind.
Creative Worship: Your doodles become an expression of praise and reflection.
Personalization: Your Bible or journal becomes a one-of-a-kind keepsake of your faith journey.
Ideas for Adding Doodles & Lettering
1. Hand-Letter Key Verses
Choose a meaningful scripture from your study and practice hand-lettering it in bold, decorative fonts. Canva can also help you practice by giving you font inspiration.
2. Add Small Doodles
Simple icons like hearts, arrows, crosses, flowers, or even coffee cups can highlight sections of your notes and bring joy to your pages.
3. Borders & Frames
Use doodled borders or colorful washi-style strips to frame verses or prayers. It helps sections stand out while adding charm.
4. Illustrate Themes
Studying Psalm 23? Add doodles of sheep and fields. Reflecting on Ephesians’ “armor of God”? Sketch a small shield or helmet. Visual connections deepen understanding.
5. Color-Coding & Highlights
Pair doodles with a color system to emphasize themes like promises, prayers, or commands. Your notes will not only look fun but also be easy to review later.
