MY THOUGHTS:
Flipping through I think this is a great Bible for teens. It has the basic setup you expect, plus extras like Rock Solid truths which take verses and give teens the truth from those verses in easy to understand ways followed with a question to think about (and the questions are great). There are also Rock Solid Promises which are features on one verse or two with a brief explanation and question or prayer and Rock Solid Plans which highlight a series of verses and show you what your next step should be in relation to the verses. There are also other useful features. The version is NIV which is a very popular translation that is easy to understand and was and still is a favorite of mine. The Bible has a nice cover, seems sturdy and looks great for either male or female in the teenage age group. This one will be going to my oldest who will be turning twelve later this year. I think it's perfect for him and he'll appreciate a more grown looking Bible.
It's that perfect time of year to contemplate a gift Bible for a teenager in your life and the Rock Solid Study Bible would make a great choice!
SHORT BOOK DESCRIPTION:
This all-new, full-featured NIV Bible is great for teens looking to grow their faith, increase meaning in their lives, and find hope for their future. The Rock Solid Bible for Teens is a timely guide for teens grappling with big questions about the world, their future, and their faith. Featuring the complete New International Version text, apologetics helps, hundreds of call-outs, and concrete promises for the future, the Rock Solid Bible provides firm traction for the development of beliefs and behavior rooted in the unchanging love, guidance, and promises of God.
