5.0 out of 5 stars A Winning Team: Peale and the Bible!, November 27, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Positive Thinking Bible (Hardcover)

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale was arguably the most well-loved Christian preacher and author of the 20th century, as he did so much to enlighten and motivate our society and culture in the post-war era. His life was truly a blessing to us all. The Positive Thinking Bible was published after he passed on, but the breezy CEV translation combined with dozens upon dozens of comments, prayers and lessons by Dr. Peale sprinkled throughout the text make this one of the most enjoyable Bibles I've encountered in my seven years of ministry. I can share passages (and Peale's corresponding commentaries) with the Bible-weary, and for a change, have them actually *enjoy* scripture studies! Further, as one who believes in a positive and affirming approach to Christianity, I find motivation and encouragement here for myself. I would recommend this version to anyone who appreciates that the Bible is a book full of motivational power. God bless you, Dr. Peale!

This review is from: Positive Thinking Bible (Hardcover)

The stories of personal experiences from Peale are relative to the scripture. The text is clearly given. The paragraph's named "Life Lifters" do just that and will lift your spirit and focus on life. Out of several versions and narrations I have read, this is the best Bible I have found that is personally inspiring and send as gifts to my friends.
