A New Inspiration From An Old Friend,
By
This review is from: God Sightings: The One Year Bible NLT (One Year Bible: Nltse) (Paperback)
The One Year Bible is a long-time friend of mine. I've read through the NIV (New International Version) Translation several times. I've recently begun enjoying the NLT (New Living Translation) Version of scripture, and was excited at the opportunity to read this version in this format. But what makes this set of books really special is the focus on "God Sightings". This Bible and its companion journal book lead the reader to a deeper relationship with Jesus because they work together to help the reader see Christ's activity in their lives on a routine basis.
This is a simple, yet very meaningful exercise that will become the most rewarding few minutes you will spend with the Lord each day. Not only will it get you into the habit of reading the Bible every day, it will also get you watching for the activity of God in your life.

A New Approach to Daily Bible Readings,
By Jennifer Bogart "@ Quiverfullfamily.com" (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: God Sightings: The One Year Bible NLT (One Year Bible: Nltse) (Paperback)
The New Living Translation of the Bible (NLT) is one of my favorites - okay, I'll admit it, I have many favorite Bible translations! I was first introduced to this fresh, clear, accessible and theologically sound translation last year and have enjoyed my readings from it. Tyndale House has paired with Group publishing to release a new addition to their One Year Bible series God Sightings: The One Year Bible NLT which follows a fairly standard daily reading plan. God Sightings: The One Year Bible is also available in the New International Version (NIV).
Each daily reading is pre-arranged so that readers don't need to flip through the Bible with a chart in hand to find the selected passages. Every day a selection from the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms, and Proverbs are laid out - a time-tested arrangement that has long been proven to keep interest and attention levels high. If you're at all like me and find it difficult to stay focused or organized, this makes reading assorted passages on a daily basis so much simpler - all you need is one bookmark! The One Year Bible series is well-known and loved due to this simple and effective approach. This is my first exposure to the series, so I can't speak directly to the similarities between this and the other NLT One Year Bibles Tyndale offers, but I imagine that they are essentially the same. The differences are found in the supplementary co-coordinating materials in the God Sightings program. Not only does God Sightings include an emphasis on reading through God's word in a single year, but also on personal reflection- watching for God's work in your life, "God Sightings" in certain areas of spiritual growth. This is accomplished in a variety of ways: churches wanting to implement a group reading plan can do so with God Sightings: The One Year Small Group Leader Guide; individuals can use God Sightings: The One Year Companion Guide to lead them in opening their eyes afresh to God's presence and work in their lives while journaling their growth; and everyone can take advantage of the program's social networking elements accessible from the program website. Perhaps most unique however is God Sightings` attempt to take Bible study into the realm of online interactivity on a large scale. Forums are provided for discussing responses to each daily reading as well as a place for general interactions as participants learn to spot God at work in their lives. A common New Year's resolution for Christians is to read through the Bible in a year - maybe you've already stumbled and missed a few daily readings, or you just haven't started yet. Don't let the fact that it's the middle of January stop you -- just jump in; make this the first year of many that you discover God's hand at work in your life.

LOVE IT!!!!,

This review is from: God Sightings: The One Year Bible NLT (One Year Bible: Nltse) (Paperback)
The best thing about God Sightings is you aren't trying to figure out how much you need to read each day. Also, it blends the Old and New Testament together which makes it more fun to read. I highly recommend God Sightings.
