I'd love to see this.

I would love to win this! Thanks for such an awesome giveaway!

Amy said...

From the website: I like how the chapter titles are there, but the verses aren't part of the text. To me that always seems to take away somehow. I think this format makes the Bible seem more 'modern'. Thanks again for such an awesome giveaway!

Christi S said...

I think this looks wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

Jace1337 said...

Something I discovered - the book shows eight ways we can change the world and it uses pictures of the developing world to get this message across.

Belinda Y said...

I also discovered that the book is not like a standard bible where the text is divided into verses. It is set out in magazine-style paragraphs and an easier to read format.

Belinda Y said...

Important quotes and passages are highlighted in red so it's easy to skim through this book - not something you can do with a standard Bible.

Debbie said...

I would love to add this book to our family's bookshelves. Thanks for the chance.
