Needs surveyed for Bible

How do you find a Bible that fits the particular needs of students? Ask students what they want first. That's what Thomas Nelson Publishers did before they designed the newly released Nelson's Student Bible. They asked some 3,000 college students (a tough audience!) what features they wanted in a Bible they would use every day.

Students want a Bible that deals with contemporary issues and helps them find straight answers to real-life problems. This Bible has a full-color 16-page section at the center with thorough biblical answers to such questions as "What is God's plan for me?"

Students want special Bible knowledge notes to explain difficult passages, and they want it right where it's needed. Starred notes at the bottom of pages answer this need.

Students want to know Why they believe ("Why does God allow suffering?" "Can we prove that God is personal and caring?" "What does God have against women?"). Thirty such questions are answered in the text. Students need these answers when they are surrounded by those who scoff at their faith.

Students want Minute Meditations. Nelson's Student Bible offers many of these throughout with a suggested two-minute Scripture reference to read. At Matthew 6, you'll find one entitled "Seeking Security," which helps students deal with the pressure of getting a job.

These are only a few of the many special helps and features in this edition which is available in several styles and bindings.
