After more than fifteen years of careful work by a multi-denominational team of faithful, conservative scholars, the New Testament premieres in this inspiring edition of the Holman Christian Standard Bible. Together with powerful, yet gentle, direction from Henry Blackaby's thought-provoking devotional notes, the new translation opens the reader's heart and mind to the living Word. The attractive, colorful layout of each page, insightful studies of key New Testament terms, and thorough footnoting of alternate readings and supporting references add a dimension of understanding to the text usually found only in study Bibles. Available in hard cover, bonded leather, or paperback, the Experiencing the Word New Testament offers formats suitable for personal use, gift giving, or Bible study groups.
