NCV Mom's Bible -- Review


NCV Mom's Bible: God's Wisdom for Mothers NCV Mom's Bible: God's Wisdom for Mothers by Bobbie Wolgemuth

Mom's Bible: God's Wisdom for Mothers gives women an awareness of just how precious and vital they are in God's plan for the family.

Available in the New Century Version and drawing on solid Bible teaching, it encourages women at every stage of life to strengthen their relationship with God. A perfect gift for Mother's Day, birthdays, or whenever it's time to say "thank you" to a special mom.

Includes these special sections:

  • Book Introductions: historical, emotional, and spiritual context for each Bible book
  • Walking In...: ways that are pleasing to God
  • Our God Is...: discovering who God is and what He does, based on His words and actions
  • Godly Character: exhibiting godly qualities in daily living
  • Passing It On: creating a legacy of faith to inspire the next generation
  • Moms in the Bible: lessons from some of the Bible's most famous mothers
  • Insights: short, practical thoughts on Bible passages from a mom's perspective
  • Wonderful Counselor: issues facing moms from the perspective of a Christian therapist
  • Questions Kids Ask: answering the tough questions about God, the Bible, and Christian life
  • First Touch Verses: verses to mull over throughout the day
  • Topical Index


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Who knew that brown font could be so pretty? This Bible is a treasure and a delight. Being made up of the New Century Version translation this is a perfect companion to the popular Dad's Bible: The Father's Plan. Through the additional text in this Bible the notes from Bobbie Wolgemuth allow the truth of importance that a mother is to her family. The encouragement found within these pages is incredibly valuable. My favorite part is probably the "Moms in the Bible" segments where profiles are highlighted that share lessons for our own mothering roles and give a focus on how to be a woman that pleases God as a Mom. Another valuable segment is "Questions Kids Ask" with some great scriptural answers.

This Bible is a great gift idea, and one that will definitely allow Mom a few moments of going back to God and just being with Jesus that is until the next tatrum. *grin* (Pardon me, my baby calls...)

I've never heard of the New Century version of the Bible, but I like the idea of "Passing It On" insights.
