The Word of God
This Bible may be unlike any other Bible you’ve seen before. We have produced this version for today’s visual generation. The images within are not designed to replace the Word of God, but to complement the message and illustrate what you’re reading.
“His Word reveals the truth about who we are
in Jesus Christ, and
His redeeming love towards us.”
His Words To Us
The order in which you find the books here is different to that of most Bibles. We wanted to help new Christians, who may never have read a Bible before, to understand the key themes of the New Testament.
We are especially grateful to the contributing pastors, who communicate the message of Jesus in a simple yet profound way. Their articles for us on Grace, Justice, The Church, The Five Foundations of the Gospel and Hope are designed to help you better understand and apply the Word. In addition, our team has put together some explanations of key words and introductions to a handful of books to assist you further.

New Living Translation
The goal of any Bible translation is to convey the meaning and content of the ancient Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts as accurately as possible to contemporary readers. The challenge for our translators was to create a text that would communicate as clearly and powerfully to today’s readers as the original texts did to readers and listeners in the ancient biblical world. The resulting translation is easy to read and understand, while also accurately communicating the meaning and content of the original biblical texts.
