MY THOUGHTS.....
The CSB Life Counsel Bible is both inspirational and practical. Where else can I find God's Word and contemporary life issues featured together in the same volume? When I opened it for the first time, I was immediately drawn to the article 'Building a Marriage to Last' but there are over 150 articles covering marriage, other relationships, parenting, and illness! These articles are written by respected Christian counselors willing to share their wisdom, and they are filled with hope and guidance.
Do I have any negative thoughts about the CSB Life Counsel Bible? The small print may be hard for some people to read.
What did I like about the CSB Life Counsel Bible? It's filled with many helpful features, including Endnotes, an extensive Table of Contents, Concordance, a Topical Scripture Index, and Word Studies. I recommend this Bible as a valuable worship tool.
