My Review of the CSB Life Counsel Bible:

When I received this Life Counsel Bible, I had planned to give it away to someone who I thought would be encouraged by reading it. However, as I opened the clean, crisp cover and explored the pages of this beautiful book, I realized that person who needed to be encouraged was me! After reading only a few pages, I knew then and there this book is a keeper. So I kept it and started studying it that same day. A few weeks later, I’ve grown more in my faith walk with Jesus Christ because of the abundant resources in this book.

Of course, you can grow spiritually when you read most versions of God’s Word but this Bible is different because of its unique add-on features such as the ones listed above. I found the articles written by Christian counselors and scholars to be very helpful because they addressed real-life issues like abuse, anxiety, depression and finances.

I appreciated the wide margins that made room for me to take notes. The font was smaller than the standard 12-point you’re used to in other publications but the 9.5 point type size in this Bible was easy to read.

For those who want to go deeper into God’s Word, this Bible offers over 25,000 cross-references connecting Scripture from Genesis to Revelation. I found that to be helpful.

I liked the introductions for each book in this Bible from Genesis through Revelation. It set the stage for what I was about to learn before reading each book and chapter within.

Overall, this Bible is practical, informative, inspirational and amazing! Those are all qualities in every true version of The Holy Bible but this Life Counsel Bible is unique to those who need additional, modern-day resources to provide counsel in their life.

I plan to buy another copy to give away someday soon to help encourage those in need.
