 Love it, love it, love it! December 26, 2008
I absolutely love this format! I enjoy the NLT for my daily reading, and this format is a fresh new perspective. I do recommend reading out of different versions, but I highly recommend this format for daily devo time. I just love it!!
Excellent read! November 16, 2008
Very readable, thought for thought accurate, great way to get a feel for the context of scripture. As you are reading about David, you are also reading the Psalms he probably wrote during that same time in his life. It is also nice to compare the exact same passages in the Gospels and see the personalities of the writers come through. A great gift...I bought four for family Christmas presents.
 I love seeing how everything falls into place, in chronological order! October 9, 2008

Our church started reading the Chronological Bible at the beginning of this year, and we decided to order this copy in the New Living Translation rather than buying the New International Version the church was offering. First of all, let me say that this is an excellent resource, and a superb translation! We love the NLT because of it's easy-to-read, easy-to-understand wording. We also like how this Bible orders everything. There are differences in opinion as to the chronology of biblical events and writings, and we like the way this particular version does it.
One word of warning: the chronology in this Bible is VERY different from the One Year Chronological Bible in the NIV. We ended up not being able to use it for the majority of the year because it was totally different than what our church was doing. This was very aggravating because I expected, since it was still the One Year Chronological Bible, that the order if everything would be the same, no matter what translation it was. Not so. I'm not sure why that was, but just know that if you're looking to read along with someone that has a different translation of this same Bible. The readings will be totally different. We plan to read through this again sometime, and use this Bible in its entirety.
The One Year Chronological Bible NLT September 14, 2008
The One Year Chronological Bible (NLT) is even better than I had hoped. It's easy to read as to format and feels like reading a novel. It shipped very quickly as well.
One Year Bible September 6, 2008
The NLT is a very easy read, and is a great aid to understanding the flow of Biblical events, especially in the OT. The measurements are American so it is easy to visualize the descriptions of places & things. I have purchased other copies to give to friends, and will likely order a regular Bible in NLT for ease of finding certain passages.
