"To know God and to make him known". It's more than a lofty ideal -- it's a hunger in the heart of believers. But how can they fill it? Is it even possible? This description may be from another edition of this product.
After carefully searching for a bible I could understand, I bought this one. The rewards were a 30 path study guide, study guides to read the bible in one or two years and written in a language I could understand. I was so impressed, that I told my friend, which led to several others in her church that purchased it also.My only regret is that it is no longer available for purchase. It would make the perfect gift
Just what I was looking for...

I have used the NIV Study Bible for years and the binding is falling off. I thought about picking up another one and was going to do just that when this Bible caught my eye. It's guided study paths are rather impressive. When I read a few of the in-text articles, I was hooked. They are a bit more to the point than those in the Life Application Study Bible and are exactly the type of thing I'm looking for. I will still use my NIV Study Bible for some study tasks, but the time I spend in the Word seeking to know God more than know about him, I'll spend with the Christian Growth Study Bible. What a pleasant surprise.
Excellent Study guide

This bible has good structured study plans. It also uses everyday situations to help you understand how to walk in God's ways. I would highly recommend it for young adults, who have a hard time with the king James Version. Studying with this bible makes it hard to put down.
Missions Bible!

I was looking for a bible that helped me understand God's heart for all people to be saved and know about Him from the begining of time. I was also looking for a bible to encourage the call to reach the unreached peopel groups---This is the bible. Take a step out of your American narrow focus and see a new world around you! It has amazing features and great highlights on countries, people, studies on the word that are simple and amazing and discusses missionaries from all over the world! Take a look!
My 23-year-old son is now reading a Bible for the first time
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
I was looking for a Bible for my son who wanted me to buy him one. Browsing at Border's and found this one. Fit the bill. He has ADD and quickly loses interest, but this Bible, with its colored sections of descriptions, etc., has really caught his eye. What really made my day was when his girlfriend (18) told me she would like this Bible for her birthday so they can study them together. Praise God! My prayers have been answered.
