Do you ever need a reset button, and a chance for a do-over? The Fresh Start Bible is the perfect fit! “With over 500 discipleship articles and studies, Fresh Start Bible will help you find God’s direction for every day.”

Fresh Start is published by Gateway Church in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Provided in the New Living Translation, features include:

“Fresh Start Journey: 52 important questions about the foundations of faith

Intersections: 59 key Bible characters and events

Road Signs: Practical teachings that illuminate Scripture and inspire spiritual growth

Worship Way: Discusses the What, Whom, Why, and How of worship

Freedom Path: Explores the spiritual freedom available to every believer

Bible Reading Breakthrough: Explains the importance of reading God’s Word every day”

As a teacher of God’s Word, I appreciate the leader’s guide, including keys to a dynamic small group. As a reader of God’s Word, I appreciate the breakdown of a daily reading plan, to apply a practical method of study. And, as a student of God’s Word, I appreciate the study resources, including in-depth teachings, Bible studies and message notes. Each book of the Bible has an introduction, sidebars, footnotes and articles to pursue a better understanding of the material in the context and intent.

When I think about receiving my first study Bible, I remember the joy I found in the pages of notes. The cross-references became a delightful jigsaw puzzle and helped me piece together an understanding of who God is and who He wants to be in my life. The notes throughout gave insight to difficult passages and provide an “ah-ha” to God’s code book.

Today, that Bible is a cherished friend; the notes I scribbled in the margin became signposts for direction. Underlined portions of Scripture jump out every time I turn the page. My desire to share God’s Word in reviews, is that others would also find the thrill of discovery within its pages. God wants to be known by you, and He gifts so many translations, so that we can know Him. Fresh Start will delight, disciple and direct you, as you dig into daily deciphering!

I am giving away a copy of the Fresh Start Bible to one reader in the continental United States. Leave a comment on my blog (at the top of this post, under the title) about tools you use to study God’s Word and you will be entered into the drawing, to be held in three days, December 18.
