This bible is what I have been looking for my whole life. As a godly man, I wanted a Bible that was easy to read and applicable to my life. This Bible does that and more. The study notes, the someone you should know and the men and women sidebars are so awesome to read. They have a 1 year Bible plan at the front of the Bible that I have been following this year. What a god send. Every Man should have this Bible at their bedside and read it daily.

This review is from: Every Man's Bible: New Living Translation (Every Man's Series) (Hardcover)

I bought this for my husband as a gift and he really loves is. Whats surprising is that I have been reading it just as much. There are different topics also discussed throughout the bible, like drinking, homosexuality, marriage, women, etc. There are key verses written to go with this subject right there, so you don't have to go seaching yourself, they did it for you.

I also really like the flow of the NLT, its easy to read but I feel a very credible translation. In the beginning it is eplained how this translation was done.

This bible also has excerpts throughout from some great Christian leaders, including Chuck Swindoll. I've never enjoyed reading the Bible more until this one came along.

This review is from: Every Man's Bible (Every Man's Series) (Leather Bound)

I bought this for my husband and have never seen him enjoy reading the Bible as he does now. The information at the beginning of each book is great: about how long it will take to read the book, summary of the chapters, key verses for memorizing, who it was written by (if known) and it places the events in a timeline. It's wonderful! I have even started reading out if it myself! It's a great Bible, I highly recommend it.
