When I was first drawn to salvation I wanted a Bible that I could understand, a translation that just got to the point. Growing up in the church my whole life I had missed Gods word because some folks think it's evil to deviate from certain translations. Years have passed and I still have my original NLT. I graduated from Liberty University with a degree in religion and have since used primarily the NASB or ESV for my deep bible studies. Keyword bibles and concordances, you name it I use in a regular basis. I love studying but I found myself wanting again just a bible I could read and not work at. I love deep bible study but sometimes you just want to sit down and read. I found myself reading the Bible less and less for me and only just when I had to put together a lesson or sermon and thus I finally can talk about this bible. I ordered this bible because I trust the nlt translation. I do not believe in one translation is all you need but sometimes I just want to sit down and enjoy reading Gods word just for fun, not for class or teaching or preaching. This bible gets it done! It has quickly become the go to Bible for my spiritual pick me ups and my personal walk. Quality construction and great notes and side stuff in the Bible along with a great easy to read and accurate translation. Perfect for every man. I still use my other bibles of course but this bible is like the crescent wrench in my spiritual tool box. Need more than one tool to get the job done but all around this bible can do a lot of things. You won't go wrong with this bible, I plan to by several more for my friends and family. Men, It is hard to lead your family, to stay the course no matter your spiritual or educational level. We need the proper tools to keep everything running. I promise this will not be a waste of money. If your like me you will naturally start to see an uprising of joy and desire to get in Gods Word. God Bless!

I’m a bit of a Bible geek. I like to subtly (and not-so-subtly) evangelize by giving high-end Bibles as gifts. In my humble opinion, the NLT translation is the best translation for most new believers. It is marginally easier and more beautiful than the NIV, but every little bit helps. I believe people are more likely to read the Bible if it’s an easier read, and it holds their attention. I only give the KJV or NASB translation to Christians who are mature in their faith, or to the scholarly types who would be bored with reading too easy of a translation. Like a set of tools, I give a certain Bible for a person that I believe it would work best for. I found the following Bibles to be the best gifts for the following situations: Comic book Bibles (like the Action Bible or Kingstone trilogy) are my first pick for teenage guys, although they don’t take the place of a real Bible. Every Man’s Bible will be my next pick. Teen Life Application Study Bible for Teenage Girls NIrV Adventure Bible for young kids, or kids where English isn’t their first language Application Bibles rather than Study Bibles for new believers (the NLT Life Application Study Bible is more of an application Bible than a Study Bible and I believe it’s ideal for a new believer). Every Man’s Bible NLT Translation is my second pick for male new believers. Life Recovery Bible with the workbook to friends who are struggling with addictions, or are in and out of jail. King James Study Bible (full color with pictures) by Thomas Nelson for someone who is already mature in their faith, or the Zondervan Bible handbook. Orthodox Study Bible if they’re interested in ancient Christianity. Douay Rheims Study Bible if they’re Catholic. I recommend those for Protestants too even if they disagree with the traditions. It’s obviously not the cover that counts, but I do believe someone is more likely to read the Bible if it has a fancy cover. I usually get them the high-end imitation leather rather than softcover or hardcover. The following are where I feel Every Man’s Bible has shortcomings: Words of Christ aren’t in red. It would be nice to have some more devotionals in it. In 2020, I believe it’s time for Bibles to be full-color. Maybe have some pictures in the footnotes also. I’d pay more for to have a Bible indexed. I like to be aware of having several contributors. If there is only one author doing the majority of the contributions, I feel there is less of a counter-balance. I’m not that superficial about the minor details. I have an MBA in marketing and I try and use what I learned about marketing and “packaging” to spread Christianity. The footnotes are excellent! There is just the right amount (not too many) to highlight key points. If a reader wants to go more in depth, they can use a study Bible, Bible handbook, or commentary. Overall, I love this Bible!

The NLT translation is what makes this Bible approachable if you have struggled with older versions that feel like you are decoding something. It reads naturally and the study notes throughout are practical and clearly written with a guy's perspective in mind. The articles are genuinely useful rather than just filler content. If you want a Bible you will actually sit down and read regularly this is a great choice.

Good for young and old. I give as a gift for young men who need a good study bible. Qaulity product for a good price.

This is honestly my number one most favored study Bible, with the Tony Evans one a close second. Both of these, but this one especially, have all sorts of little side articles, notes and features, all presented in a way that is very accessible to new Christians, yet still useful for the more mature Christian who may want to better understand the context of what they’re reading. I know the NLT gets some hate as a translation but I honestly think it works perfectly fine for normal reading and presenting to others. If one were to do an in-depth study, I might recommend something more along the lines of NASB 1995; but for the purposes of what this study Bible is looking to accomplish, the easy-to-read, thought for thought approach of the NLT works just fine. I cannot say enough good things about this volume.

Best gift to myself i bought. God is Amazing! Quality is great. Alot of material inside as well

I’d like to preface this review by giving a little background of myself. Growing up, I was baptized as a baby, went to Sunday school, learned the basic stories that were ‘kid friendly’, got confirmed in the Lutheran Church as a teen, etc. Like everyone else, I celebrated Christmas and Easter and while I knew the backstory of each I don’t believe I really felt/understood the true meaning of it all. I have always been an avid reader but have always found reading the Bible extremely difficult. Back then, I wasn’t made aware of the different translations and most likely was trying to decipher the King James Version. Ultimately, I gave up and didn’t look back. Until now. Fast forward 30+ years. I’ve got a wife and 3 kids of my own. From a faith standpoint, nothing really changed in all that time. My experience with that extremely difficult to read Bible from my youth kept me from picking up another one and I never really went to Church outside the ‘big’ holidays. My brother-in-law is deeply religious and has been trying to get me back to church and reading the Word of God for years. I’m not sure what finally did it but I decided to give it a chance. Talking with him opened my eyes to the various translations and he agreed that some are very difficult to understand without help. He recommended the NLV to me to get started. This Bible was one of the first hits that came up on Amazon. Being skeptical of it just being a marketing ploy for ‘every man’ I put it in the shopping cart as I continued to search for others. Ultimately, the raving reviews of this book got me to (begrudgingly) order it. I am glad I did! First, this book is beautiful. The faux leather cover and the slight gold trim pages are simply gorgeous. It is a book that I wouldn’t mind throwing in my work bag and ‘low key’ enough that I wouldn’t mind reading it during my lunch hour without it screaming, “BIBLE!!!”. I know, I know. I shouldn’t be ashamed of my faith but at this point I still have reservations about reading an obvious ‘Bible’ in public. But this self conscience reservation is something I plan on working to get over. The very next thing I did when I received this Bible is try to read it. Being cautious and remembering how terrible it was for me as a teen I opened to Genesis..... and I was truly shocked. It reads like it was written in English! Like real English! The type that you would expect most books to be written i. in this century! It was like a light bulb went off. While reading I started noticing the blurbs at the bottom of the pages further explaining the stories; adding much more depth to the passages than I would have gotten on my own. Also the short Biographies and tips throughout the book are great! This Bible is actually enjoyable to read! This is the first Bible that I can truly call ‘my own’. I truly believe this is the turning point where I can start to restore and truly understand my faith instead of just going through the motions of being a ‘Christian’. I hope that this is beginning of getting a true understand of just what that means.

Bought this for my boyfriend’s baptism. He liked it.

The print is small...but apart from that it's perfect....

Good present. Husband likes it, lots of maps life points etc

beautiful for gifting

The only weakness is the paper that is delicate, but I am 100% satisfied with the Bible, the comments and texts that follows are perfect and very useful interpretation of the Bible
