Learn to Use the Bible in Everyday Life!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Catholic Serendiptiy Bible for Personal and Small Group Study [NAB - New American Bible] (Hardcover)
This bible is for practicle use. It has a study section that will guide you into many areas of life that you may have questions about. It is great just to look in the study section to see about something that may be of interest to you. The margins of each page have references to the bible text on that page that provides ideas, questions and other comments that help guide you through each section. I strongly reccommend this bible for anyone who has a deep or even casual interest in how to use the bible for everyday life.

Awesome Bible,
This review is from: Catholic Serendiptiy Bible for Personal and Small Group Study [NAB - New American Bible] (Hardcover)
This Bible is awesome! If you can get your hands on a copy; get it! This Bible is great for those who are heading up a Bible study and need help with topics, questions, and scripture. The best is the topics are everyday topics and the questions tie in the topic with scripture.
