I believed it is no over-reaction to say that if you are a believer in Chirst, you have been waiting all your life for a bible like this one- you just weren't aware of it. Since I was younger, I have always had an understanding that Jesus did not played a role in the Old Testement. I used to be of the school of thought that anything before Malachi, Jesus did not played a role in the Old Testement. However, as Paul said "as a child, he thought as a child...even reasoned like a child...but he put away his childish things". Not only did the Jesus play an role in the Old Testement, but his role "centereal" to the Word it's self. Let's get down to the Pros & Cons to this bible.
Pros (Why You Should Get It)
1) Blue-Letter Text:
This has to be one of the coolest new feature that was added to the bible that I have seen In a while. The Jesus Centered -Bible highlights blue letters to point out reference to Jesus throughout the Old Testament. Overall, they hightlighted 700 letter text blue. On a sidenot, the editors suggested to it's readers when they read to do so using a blue high lighter.
Also, in the New Testament, we do see Red Ink. However, in other bibles, the Red Ink stop after the Gospels and the start of Acts. However, this bible team decided to weave the "red thread" of Jesus through the rest of the New Testament by highlighting in red everytime HIS name is mention.
2. Jesus In Every Book
Think about this for a second. The bible says you must confuse with your heart that Jesus is your personal savior. This bible would let me meet Jesus in a new insightful way. Jesus is our promised Messiah, the one who will save us, and his story is thread that runs through all of Scriptures. His influence doesn't began in Matthew; however, in Genesis we can meet him for the very first time.
3) Re-framing Jesus Insights.
Along with the 700 blue letter text, there is 150 Reforming Jesus Insights. The R.J.I. offer interesting context, great backstories, and penetrating theological insights that highlight the beauty of Jesus threaded through Scripture.
4.The Jesus Questions (TJQ)
One tool that this bible used is to ask over 100 questions... questions about relationship with Him. Every questions were designed to help you slow down and chew on a truth about Jesus and how you relate to him-- and to get you thinking after you moved on. Since I'm a nice guy, I will will give you simple questions:
A)In General, what makes some people open to Jesus, and others closed off to him. The Answer in (1 Corinthian 16:9.)
B)Why hadn't Jesus told us the specific time of his return. (The answer in 1 Thess 5:1-11)
5. Jesus answers life questions....
-What's my purpose?
-Will everything be alright?
-Is God Real?
6. There's an NLT Dictionary/Concordance, and Read The Bible In A Year Plan.
The Cons
1) Text Front is too small for someone with advance eyes.
2) Only come in a 3 formats (Hardcover, Charcoal and Turquoise Imitation Leather).
3)This bible do not offer any maps.
4)No Tumb-Indexed
If I were you, I would get this bible now. My guess is that later they would make a better format of this bible. Maybe I will love for them to make one with size 12 front Genuine Leather Indexed. I believe that would be an great seller.

Bible is great, this is our families second purchase of this Bible, my wife and I both have one. Unfortunately this last purchase the Bible came with bent pages, maybe it's not a big deal but I do expect to get a product that is not damaged. I feel as if it should have been noticeable before placing in the box to ship to me, so I'm taking off 2 stars for a damaged book at full price.
