Paula @ Gracefilled Moments I’m delighted to share my thoughts on The Life in Christ Bible from Thomas Nelson. As someone who doesn’t own a New King James Version, I was eager to explore this translation and its unique approach to understanding God’s Word.
One of the standout features of this Bible is its focus on personal identity and purpose. The introduction clearly articulates a central message: God has a purpose for your life in this moment. This theme is woven throughout the text, encouraging readers to delve deeper into their relationship with God and discover their unique role in His grand plan.
The Bible invites readers to:
— Discover why you matter: It emphasizes that our worth is not based on our accomplishments but on our creation in the image of God.
— Explore the Gospel’s transformative power: The Bible delves into how Jesus Christ’s sacrifice has made us new people, free from sin and empowered to live a purposeful life.
— Learn how your identity shapes your actions: It explores how understanding who God says we are influences our thoughts, speech, work, and interactions with others.
If you’re seeking a Bible that not only provides the Word of God but also equips you to understand your place in His story, The Life in Christ Bible is definitely worth considering. It offers a fresh perspective on personal identity and purpose, inviting you to embrace your unique role in God’s kingdom.

Paula,
Thanks so much for stopping by!!! My sister just gave me the Bible that my Mother received from a Veterans organization when my Dad passed away 37 years ago….It came in a beautiful wooden engraved box…..I will have to post pictures of it in a Blog post…As a Catholic, I do not believe that we are encouraged to read the Bible like other Christians are so I do admit that it is not something that I grew up with or even am that familiar with…There is a Bible study group at our parish that I just may have to attend….
Hugs,
Deb
