I love reading the Bible, but sometimes it is hard to understand without studying it
more deeply. You need to grasp context and literary nuances to get the full
picture, but where do you start? There
are so many good tools out there; how do you know which one to choose? How
about choosing six bestselling NIV resources fused into one awesome Bible: The NIV Essentials Study Bible!
The NIV
Essentials Study Bible (Zondervan) combines key articles, study notes, in-text
charts, archeology photos, question & answer sections, cut-out, guided tour
clarifications, and meditations from six top NIV sources to facilitate understanding
the fundamentals of Scripture:
· NIV Study Bible
· NIV Quest Study Bible
· NIV Archeological Study Bible
· NIV Student Bible
· The Great Rescue Bible
· The Essential Bible Companion
Each biblical
resource within this one Bible helps you explore God’s Word using a
variety of study methods and probes, as well as photos and charts.
This large hardback
Bible comes in an enticing format that makes you want to delve in immediately.
The layout is clean and easy to read. The study component insertions within the
NIV text don’t pop out as an interruption to the scriptural text but, rather,
they stand out just enough without being a distraction.
The beauty of the
NIV Essentials Study Bible is that, within one Bible, you can quickly
and easily understand and apply God’s Word to your life. The Q & A and
response sections also help you to consider the relevance of the text and how
it personally affects you today.
Well worth the $ 50 price tag, this Bible makes a great gift
or an investment for your own spiritual growth.
