Book Description


A much-needed devotional Bible designed for a new generation of young adult men.
Combining the current writings of key young authors and pastors with a clean, accessible design, the NIV Devotional Bible for Men fills a critical gap in the Bible marketplace: a highly approachable yet spiritualty challenging Bible targeted specifically at young adult men.

This compelling new Bible speaks to the topics, challenges, and expectations that will instantly connect with men ages 18-34. It covers such critical issues as career, sexuality, leadership, pornography, relationships, financial stability, spiritual growth, substance addiction, culture, character, education, self-image and more. Each of the 260 devotions is carefully designed to ensure extensive, sustainable immersion into God's Word, leading to meaningful life impact.

Sensitive to the technologically connected, time-starved lifestyles of today, the NIV Devotional Bible for Men offers the quick impact and deep spiritual engagement that young men can't get with any other Bible.

NIV Devotional Bible for Men features include:
  • 260 devotions of 600-800 words apiece
  • 2 methods to engage: reading through the Bible canonically from Genesis to Revelation or topically, using the topical index
  • "Leveled" Scripture engagement that allows readers to choose between 1-minute, quick topic summaries or deeper, 10-minute devotional experiences
  • Devotions from young pastors and leaders such as Matt Chandler, Shane Claiborne, Craig Gross, Gabe Lyons and Jud Wilhite
  • 52 "Myth Articles" state commonly accepted myths in our culture today, then refute those myths with answers from God's Word.


My Review

The NIV Bible for Men: Fresh Insights for Thriving in Today's World is a bible that I am giving my husband for Christmas.

The NIV Bible for Men is aimed at men 18 to 34 but after looking through the devotions, I believe that a man of any age could find wisdom and guidance. It provides fresh insight for dealing with the all of the issues that men face today. The NIV Bible for Men covers topics such as career, sexuality, leadership, pornography, relationships, financial stability, spiritual growth, substance addiction, culture, character, education, and self-image. It presents these topics in straight-forward yet insightful ways. There are 260 devotions in this bible. They are written by well known pastors and leaders such as Matt Chandler.

There are also Myth Articles sections where accepted contemporary cultural ideas are refuted with answers directly from the Bible. These will be helpful for discussing these contemporary ideas with people who have questions about the bible.

The NIV Bible for Men is a great bible for men of all ages. Great Christmas gift in my opinion!
