How to Choose a Bible Study Gift for a New Believer

A good Bible study gift helps someone open their Bible on an ordinary Tuesday and know where to begin. If you’re shopping for a new believer, think about the questions they’re already asking. Do they want to know Jesus better? Are they wondering how the story of Scripture began? The right reader’s guide gives them a place to start and a reason to come back tomorrow.

Choose the New Testament bundle to start with Jesus

For someone asking who Jesus is and what it means to follow Him, I’d start with the Books of the Bible New Testament 3-Volume Bundle. The first volume in this set covers Matthew through Acts, so readers can begin with the life and teachings of Jesus and see how the early church took shape.

Write a simple invitation in the gift card. “Start with Luke 15. Read the story of the father and his two sons. Tell me what stands out to you about the way the father responds.” One shared conversation can make it easier to open the Bible again the next day.

Choose the Old Testament bundle for the bigger story

The Books of the Bible Old Testament 5-Volume Bundle is a good fit for the reader who asks where it all began. The first volume covers Genesis through Deuteronomy, where readers encounter creation, God’s promise to Abraham, Israel’s deliverance from Egypt, and the giving of the Law. These stories give context to words they’ll hear in church, including covenant and Passover.

For an easy starting point, suggest Genesis 12:1–9. Ask the reader to write down what God promises Abram and what Abram does in response. That short exercise gives them a way to read a passage closely without feeling rushed.

Choose the complete bundle for a long-term study

The Books of the Bible Complete 8-Volume Bundle makes sense for someone who wants to explore both Testaments over time. It can also be a thoughtful gift for someone who is beginning a discipleship class or wants to study with a friend. Encourage them to choose one volume to begin and keep the rest nearby for the questions that come up later.

Give them a first-week plan

1. Choose one passage and give it ten minutes.
2. Write down one thing it shows about God.
3. Save one question to discuss with a friend, pastor, or Bible study group.

Follow up a week later and ask what they read. The conversation may be the part of the gift they remember most.
