Reviews - What do our customers think?
extremely helpful!  Jan 18, 2007
I have been very pleased with the one year Bible. It is an easy version to understand and it has really helped me get back into reading the Bible on a daily basis. The only negative is the small print and I couldn't find this Bible in leather, only in paper/hardback. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good Bible reading plan to stay on track.
 
Great for Consistent Daily Devotions  Dec 23, 2006
The Hardcover NIV version is awesome. Make sure you avoid the compact version for $12 something. The print is too small. And the paperback cannot withstand the grind of daily reading.
I am a pastor and have read the Bible voluminously for over 25 years. This One Year Bible is the best. It is formatted to be read by the Day. The mixture between an OT, NT, Psalms, & Prov. reading keeps it interesting every day. It is never dull. I have seen many daily Bible reading plans, but I have never been able to follow them because I get sidetracked or I lose the sheet which has the plan, or I don't have it with me when I am reading. the fact that this Bible is actually formatted in the reading plan makes it much easier to commit to and follow. I can carry the book with me sometimes and read it.
I love the book so much that I have sold at least 100 copies (nominal) to members at my church so that we can all read consistently and together.
It only takes 10-15 min. max per day to read, so, of course, I read quite a bit of other scriptures. But is an excellent discipline which forces you to read the Word in season and out of season. The people in our churches truly need a consistent dose of the WOrd. This provides it. I have had our people to read many Christian books such as Rick Warren, and on and on. But nothing beats getting people to really get into the Word and enjoy it.
 
Rigorous Serendipity  Dec 2, 2006
A common problem among contemporary Christians (at least in America) is that we ignore the old testament. While some of its material may be difficult to understand or not immediately applicable in contemporary life, it is imperative that we study the OT because without it we cannot hope to understand the NT. That is because the foundation for all that Christ came to do - reconciling a sinful people to a holy God - was laid very carefully over many years in the OT. Thus the OT interprets the NT, just as the NT makes clear the OT.

This is background for what I consider to be the most compelling reason to use this one-year bible. I have used the one-year bible for several years. It goes straight through the OT histories and prophecies while simultaneously plowing straight through the NT gospels and epistles; in addition, it traverses the proverbs once and the psalms twice. While I would recommend it to anyone who either needs help to sustain a regular bible study discipline or who is merely looking for a bible reading plan to supplement other studies, nevertheless I think its greatest value lies in seeing the OT alongside the NT. I have read other reviews that regard this reading plan as too arbitrary - ie, not connected to the historical chronology, etc... But I have noticed too many instances where the NT reading corresponds in one way or another with the OT to consider the relationship as arbitrary. Of course it's not possible in this format for every reading to correspond exactly; instead, I would argue that it sets up a sort of rigorous serendipity, whereby the reader can see more and more connections between OT and NT and forge a deeper appreciation for the complex intertwinings of old and new and of God's masterful providence through history in bringing a great gospel to this world.

This is actually a copy of the review I wrote for the ESV version of this same bible. I've posted it here hoping both to encourage the one year reading plan as well as to encourage some NIV readers to check out the ESV translation. The two basic paradigms of biblical translation are word-for-word (ESV) and thought-for-thought (NIV). The problem with the thought-for-thought paradigm is that the layer of interpretation between the source text and the reader is necessarily deeper. It is basically a question of precision; while the NIV is a decent translation, the ESV is more precise because it's zoomed in to a finer grain of detail.

I give it a 4 because, even though I like it for the above reasons, there's nothing graphically compelling about the composition or layout of the book; it could have been published as a separate and portable reading plan rather than as a reorganized bible which competes with your normal bible; there are other reading plans that are just as good for different reasons; and I prefer the ESV translation.

If you're new to the bible, you may want to consider a normal bible, or even perhaps a study bible. Of course there is value in reading old and new testaments side-by-side, and in reading the whole of the scriptures in one year; and of course God is always present in his word to those who have ears to hear it; nevertheless, chapter and verse go by so quickly in the one-year format so that if you're not already familiar with the lay of the land, so to speak, then it can be quite bewildering and even discouraging when you've just begun.
 
Small print  May 8, 2006
I am no where needing reading glasses yet, but the small size of the print in this bible would have required a magnifying glass. I'm sure that if I could have read it the book would have been fine. Additionally when I returned the book, this site wouldn't pay any of the shipping and they were going to back charge me for the free shiping since it wasn't their fault the print was so small.
 
A Day in The Word  Mar 28, 2000
"Daily Readings" is a challenging, non-threatening, and encouraging way to stay in His word daily. In a world where our days are scheduled from sunrise to sunset, the "Daily Readings" helps you to focus on the Word of God each and every day in all the books. You will find the Pslams, Proverbs, Old and New Testaments full and rich as originally written.
