If it is usable give it to someone..... if it's not usable, what good is it? The paper and ink are nothing special, just thank God for the things it has given you and dispose of it like you would any other book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know someone who would not put anything with God's name into recycling because of what the paper would be used for so burned everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 You may want to have a look into having the Bibles rebound if they are falling apart. There are rebinding services out there but I have no idea what that might cost. It may be an option especially for Bibles that are family heirlooms, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
