My Review

I love being able to look at new Bibles and see what new features they may have.  This one had me very excited.   I didn't know for sure if my son Titus would want this one or not but I was so happy to see in the back a few sections that I  know I would have used when I was his age.  

Promises in the Bible is the section I was referring to above.   I love being able to remind myself or anyone for that matter of the promises we have and can find in the word.   Since we are homeschooling this year I think we may have to use this as part of our study!   

I know it might not sound like much but I like the darkness of the letters in this bible.  It makes it really easy to focus on and read without any struggle.   

This is a great option if you are searching for a boy Bible.
