 Bibles:  There are many types of Bibles being marketed today (i.e. devotional, study, men’s, women’s, youth, hardcover, paperback, leather, large print, pocket…).  These are secondary considerations and really are individual decisions.  The primary issue in choosing a Bible is that it is a trustworthy translation.  We use and recommend the New International Version (NIV) or the English Standard Version (ESV).  If you need a Bible to get started reading, we would love to put one into your hands, please let us know.
