Summary: An Excellent Seeker's Bible
Review: "The Journey" is a very user-friendly NIV Bible that is particularly geared toward the seeker. The testimonies, insert boxes throughout and introductions for each new chapter bring the messages of the Bible into a contemporary context. These 'helpers' enhance the reader's understanding of key messages in the Bible and help guide the reader throughout. The personal stories at the end of each book remind the seeker that they 'aren't the only ones' and really personalize the experience of reading the Bible and understanding its potential in the world we live in today. I would recommend "The Journey" to every seeker and Christian alike.

Summary: Very good if it is your first look at the BIble
Review: This is a excellent Bible. It is only the second Bible I read, but I was pleased. I am a skeptic wanting to learn more about the Christian look at God. I have belief in God and am not atheist, but am very unsure about any details.This Bible has a clear language, and contans a lot of notes. You often feel you have a friend who knows more trying to explain things to you, they guess some of our questions. Some notes tell modern stories, some give you advice, some others simply analyse things that are not as obvious as they seem. The intro made me feel very comfortable and it states that you won't be pushed into anything, just read it and then see how you feel about it all. If you are not a believer yet, this is the Bible for you. I only wish I ordered the hardcover instead of the flimsy paperback. The ink also smells terribly, but when it comes to content, it is very well done.

Summary: A Journey for those with 20/20 Vision
Review: This study Bible has excellent commentary on why Christians believe and behave as they do. It encourages you to think on your own, and find your own answers in the scripture. I am now on my third copy of The Journey. My first two were loaned out, and I guess the loanees needed it more than they felt I did. The New International Version (NIV) is the translation used, and it is a straight forward translation. However, the print is amazingly small. I could only read this in short segments. If you get eyestrain easily, you will need a magnifying glass.

Summary: The Journey, NIV
Review: What a great Bible for seekers! This Bible is a subtle, yet provocitive study that lets you make your own decisions and leads you in the right direction. At first, I didn't consider myself a seeker, but I learned that anybody with the slightest spiritual calling should consider the question "Why seek God?"
