This daily reading Bible is the story of how God reached into the world, in the order the events happened. It is in chronological order to emphasize the continuous narrative of the Bible. Each day you get a little more from the Scriptures and it only takes about 15 minutes. The interior art and square shape were designed to appeal to a younger audience. Front matter and daily verse callouts help guide you through the readings.

I Use It Everyday...,
By
This review is from: 24/7: A One Year Chronological Bible (Paperback)
How many times have you committed to read through the Bible in a year, only to quit a few weeks (or days) in? A week goes by and you feel like you're so far behind you'll never catch up. Or you lost your chart with the passages on it.
There are so many obstacles it seems. But what if someone made a Bible in a translation that reads fluidly and has the dates printed right on that pages so that you know where to start and stop each day? This way if you miss a day (or a week) you don't necessarily need to try to catch back up, just go to today's date and read. From what I understand, most of the "One Year Bibles" do this. What makes this Bible a bit different is that it's arranged chronologically rather than in the traditional canonical order. So for instance, the book of Acts ends with Paul in Rome. Then instead of going to Romans, it goes to those books thought to have been written by Paul from his Roman jail. Granted there are some imterpretive choices made here, but as a reading Bible, this one is quite good. The only thing that I'll mention about the particular format I'm reviewing is that it's on the smaller side with fairly small font. This is not an issue for me, but others may prefer a different format. This is a Bible that I've started using everyday. The TNIV is still my primary translation for study, preaching etc. but the New Living Translation may be my favorite for just reading through large chunks of the Bible.

Really great Bible!,

This review is from: 24/7: A One Year Chronological Bible (Hardcover)
First I would like to say that I have never read the entire Bible before and I bought this Bible for me and two of my girlfriends so we could study the Bible together at college this year. I am a junior in college and my way of reading the Bible is usually just flipping around, or searching for verses that I feel relate to me. So reading through the Bible in one year will definitely be a challenge, but so far it has been so easy!
The NLT version is so easy to read and understand, and I love the way this Bible puts everything into a single column so it's like you are reading a novel! I also love that it is in chronological order. For instance, I just finished reading about Joseph, the great grandson of Abraham, and his life and death. Then immediately following Joseph's death the next story is about Job.... here is what this Bible says about the story of Job: "The account of Job is traditionally thought to have taken place around the time of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (2200-1800 BC), or shortly thereafter. However, it could have occurred as late as the Exile (during the sixth century BC)" So it really gives you at least an idea of when the people in the Bible actually lived and when the events happened. I really love that aspect of this Bible. It is split up into daily readings that only take me about 10 minutes, 15 minutes max. Sometimes I have found myself even reading ahead because it is so interesting when you can actually understand God's word in a way that relates to you. At first I thought the font was unusually small for a Bible, but I am used to it now and it honestly hasn't been an issue. The pages do have that shadow effect sometimes, but it really isn't bad at all. There is also plenty of space to write in the margins, and even a little space to write in the inside margins. It is pretty small, only a little taller than a BIC ballpoint pen (and abount an inch less wide than that same pen), but as a college student I really like the size because it doesn't take up much space. Also, the shipping was awesome! Arrived to me and my friends just when Amazon said they would. Overall, I definitely recommend this Bible to anyone who is looking read the Bible in one year. It is so relateable and easy to read and understand, I love it and so do my friends!

24/7 NLT Bible,

This review is from: 24/7: A One Year Chronological Bible (Hardcover)
I've read a chronologically-based Bible before (Daily Bible, edited by F. Lagarde Smith, pub. by Harvest House) so I had that as my standard to base this newer book against. I much prefer the Daily Bible to the 24/7 version. The 24/7 version has no added commentary, which I miss; the pages are very thin and easily stick together; and while it is chronological, it repeats sections that are duplicated (such as Kings/Chronicles) instead of keeping the flow of the story.
