Are you a talkaholic? Want beauty home remedies from the Bible? What does your wardrobe say about you? Are you a digital junkie?I admit that when I saw all the articles in something that was supposed to be a Bible, but looked like a magazine, I was tempted to check it out myself. But being a mom that is also excited to see her daughter in the Word, I took it to her first.
She took a look at it and cringed. Her eyes and shoulders sagged into begrudged acceptance as I asked her to check it out. Two days later, however, I saw her light on in her room past curfew - she was TOTALLY into it. "Yeah," she admitted with a smile, "it's not bad."
For those of you not in tween world, that's the equivalent of 'it rocks.'
She let me take a look at it, though, and I'm impressed. It really is the Bible except instead of commentaries it's sidebars of stuff to check out, practical ways to live it in a teen's real world, and fun Facebook-like walls to explain a biblical character's background and life.
It's just the New Testament but I give it 5 book lights, and my daughter does too. Thanks to Thomas Nelson for providing this book for review. Click on the cover art if you want to check it out too.
