Customer Reviews

Girls Life Application Bible NLT IS Awesome!!!!
My twelve year old and I picked out this bible after we did some joint research and it is great. The graphics are just her size, not too childish and the bible asks questions like,"Did you get that girlfriend, God loves you." It interacts with guided bible studies in the back and I am looking forward to me and her doing some of those together. I also like that it is a hard back version which allows her to take it to school and not get it bent up like a paper back. I love this book and I am getting ready to get the boys version for my six year old, it is never to early to teach directly from the bible especially with tools as great as these.

PRETTY in PINK-FRUITFUL in HEARTS!
We bought this as an Easter gift for our 7 year old daughter and she loves reading it, as well as it's beautiful pink cover that is wonderfully made and textured. I really enjoy this Bible as well!
The teaching throughout is extremely helpful in helping us connect to each other and to God. The stories and teaching help her APPLY God's Word to her life, and gives us an opportunity to talk about how she's feeling and what she's personally going through-then, allowing her to see it through God's eyes; helping her to make decisions pleasing to God in the "smaller things" in life-preparing her for a life-time of applying His Word to her life and making godly decisions about all things, great and small!
For memory verses I sometimes prefer other versions, but for praying, Bible reading and teaching, I really LOVE the New Living Translation-it really makes God's Word easily understandable using todays language, especially for kids.
I almost always use this translation for Praying God's Word-I used it in my "Alphabet Prayers" book and have received a great response from Moms, Grandmas and girls using them! For older Christians using this translation, it gives a deeper meaning, or newer explaination (I love digging deeper into a verse by comparing Bible versions) and for new Christians it's translated to this new generation with current language.
There are some things a bit more applicable for older girls, we'll just save those for later. Over-all this is a very wonderful Bible for girls of all ages-with timeless principles, relevant stories, and adaptable to many ages. I am very glad that we got her this Bible-and believe that she'll use and keep this one for years to come! It is ALREADY BEARING FRUIT IN HER HEART & MINE!

Nice bible for a teen
I got this bible for my [...] daughter for Christmas. She really likes it and we enjoy reading the side stories at night and talking about them. Some of the scenarios in this bible might be a little too mature for a preteen though. I would recommend this more for 14 and up.
