This Will Make You Read Scripture...which is good, right?

This is one Bible that will have the moderns squaring off against the traditionalists. I find it peculiar that when a Bible is made to be relevant, exciting and informative, it is somehow not good. In other words, we need not all the side info. If that's the case we don't need study Bibles or other extra-Biblical material that might corrupt the text. As far as the NVC, it's a simple, straight forward and very understandable version of God's Word. The question is, why can't we move into the 21st century and atleast TRY to understand God's Word clearly? This is a fun, exciting and excellent way to get into God's Truth. As for the cover, magazines were meant to be intriguing and inviting. The sexcess headline leads to informative articles based on what men struggle with each day. Heaven forbid, the Bible be relevant and informative on "controversial issues". Thanks Nelson, great job. I got my wife Becoming 2.

Align your heart, mind and soul.

I received this bible as a Christmas present and have just gotten around to reading it. So far I am pleased with the presentation and interpretation of the gospel. I think all of the tips that are placed throughout this biblezine are great. Is it really any different then when your pastor tells you how to apply the gospel to your world today?? People seem to be freaking out about putting Sexcess on the front of this bible for some reason. I would argue that one of the biggest problems men face today is the pervasiveness of sex in todays society. And this biblezine has numerous points based all throughout it ranging from The Art of Romance to the The Pornography Paradox. These are real issues and I see no reason why not to include them in a biblezine. In particular, when they quote scripture to back up a point they are making. Personally, I think it is a great idea and a great way to present the bible. Now I'm off to go and see if they make one for the Old Testament.

Excellent gift for men

I gave this to my husband and he loves it! He's 28 and deals with many questions about how to live out his Christian faith. I'm giving one to my brother and male cousins for Christmas!! I'd also recommend the Becoming BibleZine for women, which I read regularly.

Great Tool For Men That Deals With REAL Issues!

As a pastor I am always on the lookout for ideas and methods that will enable us for more effectively minister to our generation and this is no doubt one of those tools. The Biblezine for Men deals with real issues that men face in everyday life. We live in a real world with real challenges and this is a real tool! Thanks Thomas Nelson!

Great Bible for Reaching Men

This has to be one of the cleverest marketing tools to reach this generation of men for Jesus. It contains the entire NCV New Testament as well as some very informative and interest getting articles in a totally non (dare I say, "ANTI") religious style. I plan on buying one for all of my sons and my sons in laws.
