A Bible not for wimpy Men,
This review is from: Strive: The Bible for Men (TNIV) (Today's New International Version) (Paperback)
This is the bible I am currently reading the most. It was a gift last year for my birthday. The TNIV - Today's New International Version It has some great study notes and like the Everyman's devotional it is focused on men and what men need. The historical notes, and `myths' features focus on area's like: Fulfillment, Sex, Work, Marriage, Pride, Pornography, Anger, Faith, Money, Family and Church. There are also `downshifts' little asides that ask probing questions based on the passages read. There are also biography's of key biblical man throughout the book. The single column layout makes it a nice easy to read bible.

Sharing the word of God with my Son,
By
This review is from: Strive: The Bible for Men (TNIV) (Bible Tniv) (Leather Bound)
I attend a Theological Seminary, I was reading a passage of scripture in class from my NKJ version Bible. I must admit I wasn't reading as fluidly as I wanted, other members was reading without any problems and with better understanding. I noticed that most of them had the NI version, I asked one the men in the class if I could look at his bible. He had the TNIV Strive Bible for Men, I was impressed with how the bible was written, arranged and also provided important information specifically for men. I couldn't wait to order my own copy of TNIV Strive, The Bible for Men. I received it and I find myself spending more of my leisure time reading my bible. I was in church one Sunday morning with my 19 year old Son, he's home from college for the summer, he asked to look at my bible. He was amazed at how easy it was to read and the additional information that was listed for men that he asked me to purchase one for him. I was so happy and excited he wanted one, I ordered it that same day. I call this sharing the word of God with my Son. We are able to share in conversation about the word of God.

Excellent for Men,
By
This review is from: Strive: The Bible for Men (TNIV) (Today's New International Version) (Hardcover)
I won't get into the NIV versus TNIV discussion, let alone the other translations. This book is excellent for MEN. Especially men like me, who are more introverted. It helps to "discuss" these things and make us more likely to discuss them with others (eventually). Christianity is really a "community" religion, but it starts inside each of us. These thought-provoking tidbits get things started.
