Review & a Giveaway: The NIV Lifehacks Bible!

NIV Lifehacks

If you were offered the key to unlock mysteries, would you take it? The NIV Lifehacks Bible extends that and so much more, in the quest for understanding God’s Word.

It contains 365 articles to explain the process of becoming more like Jesus.

It covers 30 everyday disciplines.

It chronicles 8 different categories of spiritual formation (the process of conforming to the character of Christ).

 

That’s 365 articles for each day of the year.

30 disciplines for each day of the month, on average.

8 categories to examine one a day, plus one.

But do you need to read or apply every entry? The author, Joe Carter says, “No. This Bible contains over 1,000 tips and suggestions, and no one could (or necessarily should) attempt to apply them all. My goal in writing these articles is that every reader will find at least eight things to apply to their life, one in each of the eight categories of spiritual formation.” (Seeing Jesus in Scripture, Prayer, Engaging Scripture, Communion with God, Internal Disciplines, External Disciplines, Responding to God’s Calling and Assessing Spiritual Growth.)

  1. 🙂 I finally got here to leave a comment. Thanks for the opportunity to win such a great book!

  2. I like checking the different versions. Especially helpful to me are the Greek and Hebrew translations. So often we miss the nuances.

  3. My help to understand scripture is definitely my Wednesday night bible study gal/pals. The bible coming alive is a sure thing as we share studies and scripture and our life stories. I am so thankful to have my soul sisters!

  4. I love journaling while I dive into my devotions. There is nothing better for me than expressing what the Lord places on my heart. I also get so much out of listening to my favorite teachers. Lastly, but most importantly, I love the inspirations app to help me start each day on the right foot.

  5. My favorite tool is being in A good small group where different women can share ideas over the same Scripture because you gleen different things because of your life experiences.

  6. I use music and art as a shortcut to really dig deeper into scripture.
