From the Publisher

New Bible for 90's women has timeless message

When the feminist movement exploded during the 1960s, women were told they could have it all. A satisfying career, adoring family, perfectly kept home, and fulfilling relationships were all within their grasp.

But, during the 1980s, this truth' began to crumble. Women learned that if they pursued everything, they could end up with nothing. The question remained: where does a woman find her identity?

The answer has been available for thousands of years in the Bible. A woman's identity is found in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. With over 300 new devotions, the Women's Devotional Bible 2 helps women to strengthen this most important relationship.

The Women's Devotional Bible 2 contains one devotion for each day, with a special Weekending' section for Saturday and Sunday, placed within the Bible text. Each devotion notes the key verse, the passage that corresponds to the subject, and the author. Additional Scripture readings and the page number where the next devotion can be found are included.

The Women's Devotional Bible 2 is available in three popular Bible translations: the New International Version (NIV), the King James Version (KJV), and the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV).

The Women's Devotional Bible 2 can be read in at least four different ways: as a regular daily devotional, as a one-year Bible by following the reading plan provided, as an author-centered reading by following the devotions written by a particular author (the AUTHOR Biographies section provides a small synopsis of each contributor and where her devotions can be found), and as a subject-oriented reading by following the 230 listings in the Subject Index, such as anxiety, children, humility, in-laws, and worship.

The Bible is a supernaturally powerful book, one that can be explained simply to preschoolers and at the same time studied inexhaustively by scholars, say the editors of the Women's Devotional Bible 2. We pray you will become all that God intends you to be.

This review is from: NIV Womens Devotional Bible 2 (Paperback)

Have purchased several bibles looking for the one that was easy to carry in my purse and to read. I found it right in my Avon brochure. Now I have shown it to several friends who want a copy and I have referred them to Amazon.com because Avon no longer has it. Easy on the eyes and very inspirational. Thank you.
