My Review:
I love Bibles, and today, I am excited to tell you about the NIV Beautiful Word Coloring Bible. I want to be clear that I am not reviewing the Bible; I am reviewing the features of this particular Bible.
The cover of the Bible is pink with flowers on it!!! It is a nice imitation leather that lies flat when you open it, and has a gold ribbon. The flower design carries into the Bible in the front and back matter. This Bible is lightweight and easy to use. The paper is thicker than your typical paper in a Bible, making it perfect for Bible journaling or doodling. The extra-wide margins give you plenty of space for your own notes and creativity. I love that there are many different fonts and designs used for the selected Bible verses.
"...we selected key verses online Bible readers search most often. We paired our review with an editorial eye to select verses that represented every book of the bible and to balance popular verses with less familiar ones. Some verses are great to memorize; others will introduce you to a section of God's Word that may be unfamiliar."
The font is 8-point, which is the only downside to me. It is still a good size, but I have gotten to where I prefer it to be a bit bigger. This would be a perfect Bible to carry to church with you. The margins are perfect for taking notes, and for those who need to be doing something with their hands, coloring the verses can help with focus.
Thank you to Zondervan and The Book Pod for the opportunity to read this Bible. I was not required to provide a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are entirely my own.

Thanks Regine!
DeleteLooks like a great Bible!!
ReplyDeleteLaura, it is!
DeleteThat is definitely beautiful.
ReplyDeleteMarianne, I just love the cover!
DeleteI'm not much into pink but it is a nice cover. I love your picture. I have some of those figurines, the one on the right with the book, of course. And I have one of a mother with two children. I bought it because I thought they were two boys but later learned that the sculptor has two girls who had short hair. You hardly ever find anything with two boys, neither a painting or anything like that. There are always either two girls or a boy and a girl. But for me, that little figurine is me and my two boys. ;)
DeleteMarianne, both of those were gifted to me and they are precious :)
DeleteDefinitely. I have a few more, mostly given by hubby and my sons.
DeleteMarianne, that's so nice!
DeleteI think so. I'm really lucky with my three "men" in my life.
DeleteMarianne, I am blessed by mine as well :)
DeleteAren't we the lucky ones?
