There are a lot of smart people out there making it easier for you to search the Bible Gateway right from your web browser. One particularly nice tool–available for those of you who use the Firefox web browser–is the Bible Toolbar, an easy-to-install Firefox addon that puts a handy Bible search bar right at the top of your browser window:

As you can see in the screenshot above, the toolbar includes an impressive number of options, letting you change versions and languages, restrict your search to certain parts of the Bible, and more. You can install it in just one or two mouse-clicks at the Bible Toolbar site.

Kudos to Jamison Stepan and Karl Herrick, who put this together!

Obligatory disclaimer: the Bible Gateway didn’t create and doesn’t support this tool, so use at your own risk. If you know of a good third-party tool for the BG, let us know about it!
