Customer Reviews

This Bible really talks to YOU
I read it everyday. It is where I get all my answers to life. Reading it is a daily blessing. I may have read a certain passage 5 times before, but it does not register or it's wisdom does not present itself until something happens in my life and I am reading along and I come across the answer right under my nose. I don't know how I missed it before, but I did, even though it has been there all along. Like IT is waiting for ME. It is at moments like this that I am struck with AWE and I realize something really BIG is going on here. I have read 3 other versions but this one is the best by far.

EASY TO READ AND UNDERSTAND!
I am 33 years old and was always turned off by the Bible because of the arcane language. I had not picked up a Bible until recently when I saw this one at a local Christian bookstore for $49.95. This translation is exactly what I needed and what I believe newcomers to the Bible should read. Not only is the writing simplistic but almost every passage is explained in detail at the bottom of each page. I remember being young and trying to read the King James Version which was a nightmare for a young kid. I wish everyone knew this translation is available. The publisher has outdone itself by including so many extras and really simplifying an extraordinarily complicated book. Thank-you for allowing me to be able read and comprehend this important work.

A wonderful Bible for everyday use!
The "Life Application Bible" is the most refreshing Bible to be offered by publisher's in years! No matter which translation version is selected, the "Life Application Bible" enhances and interprets many difficult passages, while offering several possibilities for controversial passages. The maps are well defined and inset at the point in the biblical text where they are most beneficial. Additionally, The "Life Application Bible" has many wonderful character profiles of key people throughout. Together with vital statistics, blueprints, and megathemes at the beginning of each book, this version tops the list of all others currently available today. The only thing missing is the old-fashioned concordance that many users, like myself, have grown used to. If you are going to shop for a new Bible, you owe yourself a review of this publishing . . . "work of art!"
