My best Bible so far October 22, 2008
I just recently purchased this Bible, and I truly love it. It is so easy to understand and love the fact that the Message is right next to it. I have recommended this product to other's and they love it as well.

Great Bible April 28, 2008

I had attended a Bible class where a fellow student shared this Bible. Couldn't wait to purchase one on Amazon where the price was right. This is the best of two great translations/paraphrases. The Message is easier to read when the verses are aligned with those of the NIV.
 Refreshing and reliable reading, but some suggestions April 7, 2008

I've always had my doubts on The Message version due to its seemingly careless and unrestricted translation of the texts. But when paralleled with the more trusted (though definitely not perfect) NIV translation, I at least have something to fall back on if I ever doubted some of the phrasing in The Message. Together, it becomes a refreshing read while still feeling backed up by the more reliable NIV.
Although generally a good compilation, there are a couple things that I would've liked to see: the red color on Jesus' spoken texts (for at least in the NIV), and perhaps a more distinguishable font between the two translations (as I read one translation, I would accidentally jump to the other one when I turn the page).

This is a great bible to use my only problem, there wasn't a ribbon marker as the desription states.This bible gives a clear understanding of the meaning and terms by paralleling side by side.
