This is a very interesting study Bible and I love that it contains insight from the gifted pastor and teacher Max Lucado. I found the life lessons that are contained give you more depth and insight on what is going on in the Bible and helps you apply it to your life. The Applications help you with a more personal study of the Bible in your quite time. The New King James Version is not the Version I usually use but it is nice for a change and I would really like to see the study Bible available in other Translations of the Bible. Thank you to Booksneeze and Thomas Nelson for providing this copy to review and give my thoughts on.
