My Review:

I was quite impressed with the Abide Bible (NET). I found that it was easy to read and have a better understanding as what the scriptures are saying. Within the margins of the pages, there are prompts for journaling, contemplating, imagining, prayer, and space for note taking if desired. Sprinkled throughout are pictures of beautiful works of art. I was interested in the 365-Day Bible-Reading Plan that gives me a good plan and an easy way on reading the whole Bible for the upcoming New Year. There are two satin ribbons that make it easy to find where I last left off reading in two different places. Each chapter begins with an Introduction, Historical and Literary Context, and Prepare. I really liked this version and found it to be a perfect replacement for my worn out Bible. 

I am giving Abide Bible (NET) five plus stars. I believe it would make a perfect gift for this Christmas season and for any other day of the year. 

I received a paperback copy of Abide Bible (NET) from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
