The MSG seems ideal for a journaling bible.Timothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12530713931306188305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5272296692697032264.post-2624944018715145982017-10-26T05:36:34.115-07:002017-10-26T05:36:34.115-07:00Well, I'm torn.

Maybe its being a lector for as many years as I have because I see all the troubleshooting and awkward punctuation, phrasing and syntax. I prepare for a Sunday reading and I'm thinking, "I can barely understand what this saying so how in the world can I read so that those in the pews have a prayer of understanding it. This is one of the reasons I'm leaning toward the Scribe Bible with the Message for personal reading and journaling. Obviously it is short a few books, but I like the translation as a change of pace especially for personal prayer and reflection.<br /><br />KeithKeithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07171601683108719867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5272296692697032264.post-81200939680023664732017-10-24T14:50:25.517-07:002017-10-24T14:50:25.517-07:00I was overjoyed to find this after my family tried...I was overjoyed to find this after my family tried in vain to purchase me a lovely bible than was very similar but very Protestant. Obviously missing a few books, but now I know where to point them! And as much as the NABRE is not my favorite translation, I am glad they chose the "official" translation we hear at Mass (even though the Lectionary is a tad different) since most parishes seem to use the NABRE for bible studies as well. Hopefully this beautiful bible will encourage more Catholics to own, carry, study, and pray with a personal bible that can be well-read, loved, and handed down to the next generation.Erica Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5272296692697032264.post-30071876597314831092017-10-24T13:41:37.557-07:002017-10-24T13:41:37.557-07:00Awesome!

Okay, I took that a bit too far. I apologize. <br /><br />vladimir998Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5272296692697032264.post-68345251690677846852017-10-23T05:46:06.728-07:002017-10-23T05:46:06.728-07:00I think it could be used by a man as wellI think it could be used by a man as wellTimothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12530713931306188305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5272296692697032264.post-33014286706175429212017-10-23T05:41:43.769-07:002017-10-23T05:41:43.769-07:00I'd like to know if this bible is only for wom...I'd like to know if this bible is only for women.
