I have another blog tour I need to play catch-up on due to extenuating circumstances beyond my control. Tyndale House Publishers released a new Bible this fall, the Holy Bible: Mosaic NLT.

Encounter Christ on every continent and in every century of Christian History. A new genre of Bible—a weekly meditation Bible—Holy Bible: Mosaic is an invitation to experience Christ both in His word and in the responses of his people. Each week, as you reflect on guided Scripture readings aligned with the church seasons, you will receive a wealth of insight from historical and contemporary writings. Full-color artwork will engage the soul; quotes, hymns, prayers, and poems enhance the rich devotional experience. Also includes a Dictionary/Concordance, NLT word study system with Hebrew/ Greek dictionary. A beautiful layout of art and devotional content, and an online community and content will extend the experience.


MY THOUGHTS:
Bibles are very personal possessions, and while I am very picky about the one I use, I appreciate that we have such an array of Bibles from which to choose. Holy Bible: Mosaic is a fascinating combination of readings, artwork, and devotionals. Those who especially enjoy art and depictions of Biblical events from various cultural perspectives will find much to like in this book. It's not my particular taste, but that is a point of personal preference. Additionally, while the Bible itself (as found in the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments) is universally applicable, it is very difficult to write devotional material that all denominations will agree on. The danger is that in trying to appeal to all, it may appeal to none. Because I am not from a liturgical church background, some of it just didn't resonate with me. But don't just take my opinion, take a look for yourself.

In fact, I have a copy to give away to one of you! Due to the weight of the Bible, the giveaway is actually a certificate for a free Holy Bible: Mosaic"; the winner can either redeem it at a local Christian book store or by send it directly to Tyndale if no bookstore is in the area. Due to Tyndale's limitations, this offer is only good for those in the US. Leave a comment on this blog by Tuesday (12/22) at 8:00 pm CST and I will choose a winner using Random Number Generator.


Thanks to Tyndale for providing a copy for my review and a giveaway certificate.
