Rating: Summary: Learn God's Word! Review: I love this Bible for the fact that it has easy refrences. It is extreamly easy to follow. It gives detailed back grounds for some of the most well known characters in the Bible. It is great if you are trying to learn or preach the word.
Rating: Summary: Great For Young Adults Who Want To Fully Get Into God's Word Review: The NJKV Extreme Bible is the best Bible that I've seen for young adults between the ages of 18-30 who want to fully get into the Word of God.I'm a youth leader at my church and I find this Bible to be extremely useful for me to use when I am ministering to young people. I've also found that this particular Bible has helped me to get closer to God. The NJKV version is very easy to understand and there are special features in this Bible that help you to get as deep inside the Bible as you can. People profiles give you specific information about specific people who stood a head above the rest to change their world. What's It Mean? notes give you yte-sized information on specific words or phrases you read about that might not be as obvious today as they were in the culture of Bible times. There are also other notes that point out promises that God makes in the Bible and ways that He calls us to live 'On The Edge' through faith that pushes us to trust God in the extreme. There is also a Quick Reference Index which is the place to turn when you need God's answers to your questions. Look up your question by topic in the front of the Bible, then find the answer at the Bible book, chapter, verse location listed. The questions are also repeated in the Bible text next to their answer. There are handy Reading Plans in the back of the Extreme Bible. These plans give you suggestions for what to read every day to cover the Bible in a year. However, there are also other Reading Plans as well, such as: 30 Days With Jesus - if you have ever asked yourself, 'I wonder what Jesus would do?', then you can find out by following this reading plan, by taking a month to read the story of Jesus. 60 Days With Paul - After you've read 30 Days With Jesus, it is a really good idea to learn what it means to be a disciple of Jesus by spending '60 Days With Paul'. 90-Day Overview Of The Bible - This plan takes you through the major events of the Bible without you reading the entire book. Finally, there is also an 'Extreme Index' which makes it easy to find what you're looking for! The most important contents in the notes and articles are arranged alphabetically by subject, which every topic you could imagine from Abuse through to Worship. Whatever your need is, this easy-to-use feature helps you zero in on the Biblical advice and insights you want, fast! This is definitely not a Bible for the faint-hearted! Are you up for the challenge? If you are, then you should definitely purchase this Bible - you won't be disappointed!
Rating: Summary: A Nice Addition to A Christian Home Review: This is a lovely Bible. The colorful graphics, page layouts, and inserts are appealing to the younger age groups (adults too) and really draw the reader in. The language is clear, easy to read, and easy to follow especially if you are familiar with the traditional KJV. I took one look through it at my local Borders and just had to take it home with me. If you have children, this would make an especially nice gift Bible (I wish I had received one like this back then). I would also recommend this Bible to youth group leaders or youth Bible study groups. As a former youth group leader, this would have been my Bible of choice. The only thing I would recommend to the publisher, if a second edition comes out, is to include maps. I make constant reference to them when I read, and it would be a good way to start teaching youth the Biblical geography we hear so much about in the news today. Otherwise, I really like this Bible. Buy it and enjoy.
