Decent bible for a small price

I wouldn't consider this a fantastic or a keepsake bible, but it is practical and has some good reflections for men in it. The index is very lacking in functionality and completeness. If you are looking for something basic, this is good.

Excellent devotional Bible

The New International Version Bible has been my personal favorite translation for nearly twenty years. And this Men's Devotional Bible is, perhaps, my favorite edition of the NIV Bible. In addition to the Word of God to guide one's daily walk with Christ, this Bible contains many great devotions to help draw a man closer to God. This Bible is loaded with writings from Dietrich Bonhoeffer, C.S. Lewis and St. Francis of Assisi, as well as contemporary writings by Charles Colson, Billy Graham and Chuck Swindoll, to name a few. There are also some great devotions by professional athletes such as Dave Dravecky, Orel Herschiser, Mike Singletary and Reggie White. Also included are author biographies of the devotional writers and a subject index. Altogether, the NIV Men's Devotinal Bible is a great devotional Bible for men to help them become better husbands and fathers in addition to growing closer to God.

A wonderful resource

In the summer of 1994 I received the original hardcover version of the NIV Men's Devotional Bible through a book club. I hadn't intended to use it myself, rather I thought that it might make a nice gift for a friend. After I started going through the daily readings and the accompanying devotions, I decided to keep it for myself. Although I've been a Christian for many years, I've always found it to be beyond my level of self-discipline to continually practice the habit of daily Bible readings; using this Bible, I changed that. Although it still took me nearly two years to read through the one year of devotional readings, for me that was infinitely better than any other daily devotional books or Bibles, none of which I have ever finished. Since that time, I am now going through it for the third time.^M
