This pocket size NIV is especially good for giving as a gift to friends you want to share the gospel with. Having the Psalms & Proverbs is really a plus. Easy to read sharp black text on white paper ...the size/price allows you to keep several on hand to give away as needed.

This is a great resource to keep in your briefcase, backpack, purse, or locker, and I am buying more to give to some Christian college students who can keep them in their backpacks for being equipped to share the Word at any time with others or for personal time with the Word. I was amazed that the type was actually more readable than I thought it would be, and the quality of the paper and type are excellent for something this compact. I love to read the corresponding Proverb for the calendar date of the month (31 days in most months; 31 Proverbs; coincidence? I think not!). I have friends who go backpacking out in the middle of nowhere, and I plan to give them one of these and a waterproof zipper bag to keep it in so when they are out in the middle of nowhere they can still have the Word of God with them in a lightweight package.

I plan to keep one in my desk at work, and in my car console so when I am waiting in the car for someone I can take a few minutes to read a Psalm or Proverb and be uplifted in that short interim. Often when I travel there simply is not enough room for a full Bible in my carry on stuff, but this NT with Psalms and Proverbs will definitely now be a regular part of my carry-on stuff! The books of Psalms and Proverbs are two of the most wonderful and uplifting books in the entire Bible, and having them here is a huge bonus. Who ever thought of adding them in this New Testament was a genius! And using the well-respected NIV translation makes this package totally irrestible to me.

Finally, for a book of over 500 pages, the cost of this is very reasonable, and makes giving as gifts very sensible.

4.0 out of 5 stars Short but Sweet, June 25, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: NIV Pocket Thin New Testament with Psalms & Proverbs (Leather Bound)

This is a delightful sized New Testament to carry around in your purse, briefcase, or pocket. It is in the most popular translation of the day, and a very readable translation. It is not only a great personal purchase so you can read it while out and about during your busy day, but it is also a great gift to give for adults and young adults.
