NRSV, Catholic Bible, Gift Edition, Leathersoft, White, Comfort Print: Holy Bible Reviews
-
I'm not going to review the content of the Bible! But I'll note here that I found this edition easy to read and portable (it traveled with me all year). I used the Bible In A Year podcast and reading plan to read the entire Bible this year - reading the daily passages and then listening to the podcast. The plan was definitely doable and I'd encourage anyone else who feels moved to spend some time with every book of the Bible to give it a try.
