umsami Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 So it's been quite some time since I looked at Bibles or devotionals. Back in my day, the NIV was where it was at...although plenty liked the NRSV version, too. (I was presbyterian.) . For devotionals, I remember "My Utmost for my Highest" and a bunch of Max Lucado stuff. My Mom has an old Bible whose font is way too small to read. It's from the 40s and falling apart. It's not a KJV, but I have no idea what version it is. To be honest, I doubt she's ever much read the Bible, although she would consider herself a good Christian. She's looking into a Bible study so I'd like to get her something a tad bit more modern that isn't falling apart. She's in her late 80s....so large print is ideal. Fine with just a NT, as I don't think she'll venture much into the OT. Any recommendations are welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElizabethB Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Combined Bible and devotional, "My Utmost Devotional Bible." https://www.amazon.com/Utmost-Devotional-Bible-James-Version/dp/0785203877/ref=sr_1_3?crid=25UPR3BQYAL2G&dchild=1&keywords=my+utmost+devotional+bible&qid=1590524986&sprefix=my+utmost+devotion%2Caps%2C191&sr=8-3 There is a daily reading with a bit of devotional, a bit of Old Testament, short reading from Psalms and Proverbs, and a New Testament selection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoutTN Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 New Morning Mercies by Paul David Tripp is hands-down the best devotional book I've read in my 29 years as a Christian. For a Bible, something large print and with paragraphs written across the page instead of printed in two columns. ESV or NIV with a nice cover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
