    Once a Day (NIV) or Reading God's Story (HCSB)?

    I'm getting ready to purchase a one year chronological Bible for my Kindle. I really like both of these Bibles because they do not have dates so I can read ahead if I want to or if I fall behind I won't feel bad because I'm not on a certain date. Has anyone read the NIV Once A Day Bible (...

    Bible in a Year - Best Way? Best Translation?

    If I were using it as a Bible in which I was going to be flipping back and forth to different books/chapters/verses then I would agree...since the goal is to read through the Bible by reading some in it each day, I'm hoping the Kindle will serve this purpose. Thanks for everyone's help so far...

    Bible in a Year - Best Way? Best Translation?

    I received a Kindle over the weekend and want to get a 'Read the Bible in a Year' book to put on it. They seem to offer three main types: 1) ones that give OT/NT/Psalms/Proverbs each day; 2) Chronological; and 3) Reading Gods Story (sort of an alternate chronological that doesn't give specific...

    'Fresh Air' or 'Unleash!' - Recommended?

    I had microfracture surgery on my left knee last week so I'm off my feet for another 5 weeks. In preparation for that I ordered a couple books: 'Fresh Air' by Chris Hodges and 'Unleash!' by Perry Noble. If anyone has read both, which one do you recommend reading first? If you have read either...

    Tablet as my Church Bible - Yes or No?

    I asked my wife what she would think if she saw someone with a tablet out in church and she said she would think they weren't paying attention. So now I'm a bit between a rock and a hard place. I think it would be awesome to have my Sunday School Bible (HCSB) and my Worship Service Bible (NKJ)...

    Tablet as my Church Bible - Yes or No?

    I'm considering the purchase of a Tablet (probably either the Nexus 7 or Galaxy Tab 2 7") to use as my Bible I take to church. On my Droid 4 phone I have the Bible You Version App that I love. It has most of the translations (almost all you can download to the phone so you don't have to have...

    'Non-Study' KJV Bible for under $25?

    Can anyone recommend a good looking (for a male) non-study King James Bible for under $25? My wife says a Large Print version is what I need...my arms are still barely long enough for me to see regular print but she says I look a bit strange with my arm extended in church. I've been taking a...

    NKJV or NASB?

    After comparing various translations (ESV, NASB, KJV, NKJV, and HCSB) and all of your help (thanks) I've decided that I would like for my new Study Bible to be either the NKJV or NASB translation. I really love a lot about both of them and am having a hard time deciding between the two. So in...

    NKJV, KJV, or ESV?

    So, which translation (not necessarily just the ones listed) would you say offers the best combination of truth (to the original), readability, and understandability? Thanks again for your patience and your help. TripleB

    NKJV, KJV, or ESV?

    As I go on the internet and look at various sites comparing the KJV to the NKJV, it seems like many of them are saying that the NKJV has changed many of the words and meanings of the KJV which would lead me to believe the NKJV isn't nearly as accurate as the KJV (or maybe even the ESV for that...

    NKJV, KJV, or ESV?

    Thank you...we've needed it this week. My wife was called back to the doctor for more tests/x-rays...luckily everything turned out to be OK and I'm having surgery next Monday to help start the process of creating new cartilage in my knee. Anyway, so with all the problems evident in newer...

    NKJV, KJV, or ESV?

    In my previous post I asked about Study Bibles. I'm thinking I might should have asked about which translation to go with and then look at which Study Bibles or Bibles are available in that translation. I currently have a Nelson New American Standard Bible, Tyndale New Living Translation...

    Best Study Bible?

    I have several different Study Bibles: Tyndale Life Aplication NLT, Nelson The Open Bible Expanded Edition NAS, and Holman Aplogetics Study Bible HCSB. My Sunday School class uses both the King James Version as well as the Holman Christian Standard Version (usually reading from the last for...

    Book for "Sunday School" Type Lessons?

    First let me say, I understand that studying the Bible carefully is probably the best way to study it in an in depth manner but sometimes I struggle with the meaning, understanding, and relavance of the material. What I would like to find is a book that is similar to many Sunday School Lesson...
