I can't keep a personal copy because it is such a great Bible I keep giving mine up! It is such a great way to get the shy or seeking into God's Word. Every time I go back to the local bookstore to replace mine they have to keep reordering them because they can't keep them on the shelf, and I am having to resort to ordering them in bulk. I am a fan of KJV and NKJV for indepth study of God's Word, especially if analyzing the original language. But for daily devotions, this NLT Bible can't be beat because it flows really well and makes it easy to read while being true to the original meaning. The highlighted promises in this NLT version provide a special means of allowing the Word of God to speak to you in a most personal way. Please note! This Bible is available in BOTH forms: complete Bible with OT & NT, as well as New Testament w/Psalms & Proverbs only! Both are excellent resources!

Great study/carry anywhere Bible.

This bible is a very straightforward copy of the NLT version. The NLT version is the best contemporary language translation in my opinion as it doesn't try to neuter God the Father, or make the bible PC. It has a very modern, conversational tone that has helped me see many new insights on passages I had read 50 times in other translations. It is great for carrying around. Since I tend to be very busy, I don't have a set time to read my bible and this one allows me to read it when time avails. I will grab 5 minutes here, an hour there, etc. This bible doesn't have lots of notes or explanations of everything, but I find it refreshing as it allows me to not be persuaded by some other persons interpretation/bias of the given passage.

Great Gift Bible

There are three other pocket-sized NT Bibles, that I'm aware of from Tyndale. This new addition, was an answered prayer as I feel it is great to give to non-believers. It is titled THE PROMISE BIBLE. The beginning has numerous promises listed by topic. As you progress through the Bible text, many promises are underlined. This is a great way to share with a non-believer how awesome God's promises are to us. That Jesus is a personal Savior who will empower us to live a life that is not only pleasing to him but also one filled with Joy.This NT also contains Psalms and Proverbs. When you give this to someone, it is helpful to have two copies so that you can direct them through the various Books by page number. You can give them a brief Bible study through the Gospel of John, the Romans Road, the chapter of proverbs that numerically corresponds to the day of the month, or any other way that God might be speaking to you!A great Soul winning Bible!All for the Glory of God!
