NIV: The Sola Scriptura Bible Project

NIV: The Sola Scriptura Bible Project

The Complete Collection - Navy/Tan

I am very much enjoying this set.  It is truly for reading with ease and without distraction of any kind.  It is not broken up with chapter or verse markings so it reads like a narrative.  Visually, the pages are clean looking and I find myself reading more than I would in a 'normal' Bible.  I have sometimes had to fight off my inclination to reach for a map or a notation and have instead allowed myself to just read the story... to immerse myself in the scriptures themselves.  This is not a set for study, but is instead a Bible to relax with an enjoy.  A different kind of experience and, I would argue, an important one.

Sola Scriptura was the foundation of the Protestant Reformation 500 years ago. It was a call to return to the roots of our faith by embracing Scripture alone as our highest authority. The NIV Sola Scriptura Bible Project shares that vision and invites you to read the living Word in its most ancient arrangement.The Old Testament is arranged according to the traditional order of the Hebrew Scriptures: the Torah, the Former and Latter Prophets, and the Writings. The New Testament is reorganized by placing each of the four Gospels at the head of four groupings that together bear witness to the central story of Jesus. The NIV Sola Scriptura Bible Project also removes chapter and verse numbers, red letters, and cross references.
