Encounter God in new, transforming ways through the pages of this truly unique resource, The Meeting God Bible.

If you hunger for greater depth in your relationship with God, the NRSV Meeting God Bible is a feast for the imagination, emotions and intellect—leading to a clearer understanding of God's call to you in scripture.

"Holy scripture is a living, breathing thing," writes one reviewer. "Each Christian must engage it individually as well as corporately—learning to see the story of their own life within the Story of us all. The Meeting God Bible is a worthy companion and guide for such a journey."

On each page you'll find an Entry Point reflection based on spiritual disciplines practiced by Christians throughout the centuries. More than 1,500 Entry Points tap into the vital heart of scripture through

Lectio divina or a two-way conversation with God
Ignatian reading, which engages all the senses
Franciscan reading, which calls on the creative arts
Fivefold Question, which prompts consideration of the passage's effect on daily living
Quotations from respected historic and contemporary Christians, which illuminate the power of scripture

Other features are included to enhance your reading and understanding:

a how-to-use guide
introductory essays for each book of the Bible
Getting Started in Spiritual Formation articles
easy-to-read, single-column design scripture with side margin comments
a topical index for Entry Points and Meeting God articles
available in the widely accepted, easily understood New Revised Standard Version
