Product Description

Product Description

"The New Century Youth Bible", first published in 1993, has rarely been outside the top three selling Bibles in the UK. This revised edition brings the Youth Bible right up-to-date for the twenty-first century. Whilst retaining the original text, this revised edition has over 25 per cent of its Life Files replaced or updated. There are also new categories on subjects such as music, euthanasia and the environment. The Bible continues to be the most easy-to-read, relevant and user-friendly text for young people today.

5.0 out of 5 stars wow! great translation!, 30 Mar 2002
By A Customer
I was given this translation as a present for my 12th birthday and the whole presentation and wording just made reading the bible more exciting. I'm now 14 and I still feel the same -I really believe finding the right translation can make a difference to how enthusiastic you are about reading the bible and I'm so glad I've found this one! Its so clear and easy to understand...the best present I've ever been given!

Sometimes the bible can seem unrelevant because of the old-fashioned and sometimes even complex language. This youth bible helps you to understand the relevance to life today. It contains 'sidelights' throughout it which are facts and notes (for example...'mentioned previously by Paul in Ephesians') which help you to understand why things happened. These really helped put what I had read into perspective.
There are also study aids at the beginning of each book that put the book into context. The aids contain maps and information on the writer and (when relevant) the political state of the holy land at the time. Using this I can put the book into context.
Throughout the bible, there are 'life files' on 80 subjects, (for example...marriage...sin...freedom...drugs) which show the reader what is being said in the passage and help them understand it and relate it to their life. It then gives prayer ideas and suggestions of who to talk to about it and where else to read up on the same subject, I found these very interesting and I enjoyed seeing a different point of view.

I loved the clear translation and layout of the Youth Bible and I would recommend it to anyone!

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Fabulous, 7 Jan 2005
By Alex (London, England) - See all my reviews
I got this bible about a year after I'd been what you'd call a 'serious christian'. But I hadn't been reading my bible everyday like perhaps I should have been. The reason for this is that I had a bible where I couldn't understand most of the important things it was trying to tell me, and secondly I had no idea where to start reading. Then I began to realise that my bible needed to change. I looked and found this! This bible actually made me want to read my bible, I turn every page with excitement and wonder at what I'm about to read. It has amazing life files which really help in everyday life, subject to young people and teenagers. It is also simple to read and so helps me with my somewhat new and exciting relationship with God. I seriously recommend this to every young person out there, it is absolutely fabulous!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best book I ever read, 9 Mar 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Youth Bible: New Century Version (Collage): New Century Version Collage Youth Bible (Bible Ncv) (Paperback)
The NCV Youth Bible is written in a clear language, and has 'life files' to help explain and apply bible verses. It is SO COOL for private bible study or bible study in a group. It has helpful pointers, and I don't think I would have really been interested in anything in the Bible if it weren't for this version. Now I read it practically every night. It really is the most feelgood read you can get- and the best part? It's all true! No fiction involved!
God, Thankyou for the people involved in making this Bible so readable.
