Unlike any other Bible available, Faith in Action Study Bible introduces a new and innovative "commentary style" notes system that's divided into paired notes: "There and Then" and "Here and Now." "There and Then" notes provide background information and/or explain or amplify the meaning of the text. "Here and Now" notes explore a variety of contexts, both personal and social/cultural, in which the passage may be applied today. The goal is to invite, coach, encourage, and inspire while using open-ended questions and invitations for reflection.Jam-packed with all the study tools needed, Faith in Action Study Bible will not disappoint!
