This study Bible has 3-4 excellently worded questions at the begining of each page and 3-4 short, insightful comments at the end of each page and a wide margin for you to write notes as you prayerfully reflect on each page of the Bible

I bought "The Experiencing God Study Bible" on a lark from a local Christian book store that was shutting down and had everything on deep discounts. Let me be one of the first to tell you, that if I had known it was going to be this good, I would have paid full price. I am not exaggerating. I went back and got the other two versions. There are at least three - the New King James, the original King James, and the New International version.

The book is large, with very wide margins for note taking. The text is easy on the eyes, and print quality is excellent. It has some of the usual features for good Bibles, such as a family records section, general concordance, simple index, small atlas section, and other items found in many other Bibles.

But it is in what this Bible provides that others do not where this version shines. Every page of scriptures has a general focus statement for that page (example: God Focus: Faith), every page of scripture has a section on how to use verses on that page to "Prepare to Meet God", every page of scripture has a section on "Did You Notice?", all of which provide literally thousands of ways to use your Bible as a study tool. There are also many pages dealing with specific characters from the Bible. There is also a page after each book that lets you jot down your own thoughts on methods of experiencing God.

There are also a number of icons, similar to computer icons, that mark special verses to read for things like "Love & Relationships," "God Speaks," "Spiritual Awakening" and others. There are fifteen of these icons altogether, and a special index in the back to locations for where they all appear. Also in the back is a section that talks in depth about each of the icon topics.

I have never seen a Bible that lends itself better to both individual and group Bible Study than this one. It's a real shame that it seems to be out-of-print. I cannot stress enough that if you really want to truly Experience God, there is no better Bible to do it with that I have found, and that is very high praise from me indeed. My very highest recommendation. Easily worth far more than the usual five stars.

I ordered this item and was told it had been shipped. After waiting approximately
6 business days I was informed they were not sending it and were crediting my credit card which I have not been able to confirm at this time.

I totally agree with " Bruce Gray" . This is an awesome bible,very well made. It has helps that you won"t find any were else. Somebody needs to tell B&H to put it back in print.
