Nothing beats giving a new Bible at Christmas (well,
except receiving one, that is). And when that Bible is laced with inspirational
thoughts by Brennan Manning, then you know it’s a winner.
The
NIV Ragamuffin Bible, Meditations for the
Bedraggled, Beat-Up, and Brokenhearted (published
by Zondervan) is such a Bible.
The
Ragamuffin Bible contains the complete NIV text—the most popular modern-English
translation—and myriad candid meditations from Manning’s own reflective journey
in a quest to better know the God who not only loves him but also likes him.
Manning fostered the idea that God actually likes His children. His devotionals
not only expound that idea, but also divulge Manning’s own soul-searching trek
and share the riches of God’s grace he finds along the way.
