As a youth leader, it is import to find a resource that not only will have a long shelf life but help those youth, as well as adults, grow in God's word. It is import that Christian understand the background before we get to the application. This resource not only will have a long shelf but would be found classrooms in our churches. From my personal analysis of this book, it is easy to navigate and understand. I recommend this Bible to new believers and seasoned Christians. The colored charts help the reader find info with ease. This a Bible that should be used in the personal study right along their Bible.
