NLT Life Application Study Bible, Third Edition, Purple: New Living Translation, Purple LeatherLike: Red Letter Edition

Brilliant , easy to read and understand.

What a fantastic purchase. Beautifully boxed this bible is sturdy, easy to use with space for notes and is lovely to handle- tactile. Very pleased with the purchase. Pricey but will last me a long time.

Not much else to say. Other than if you've not read this, or a version of it, y'all should. It'll save your life. Praise the Lord

Requested a replacement and will update the review when I get it, as hopefully it won't have the same problem. But I've encountered several pages that seem to be fused together. Some I've managed to separate (causing slight damage to the pages) but others like the pages containing the remaining text of Job 38 (pages 844 & 845) I can't separate at all. Edit: Got the replacement and this one is much better. So far I've not encountered any stuck pages. Bumping this up to 4 stars because the content inside is stellar. Love the application approach in the study notes, nice clean layout that is very pleasing to the eyes. Only thing keeping it from 5 stars is the possibility that someone might encounter the same issue with stuck pages that I had with the first Bible.

I bought it as gift for a friend . She really loved it, especially the life application study part.

This study Bible has enhanced and promoted a deeper intimate relationship with the LORD through providing background, history, and other insights.

Beautiful study Bible, heavy as expected, lots of helpful notes and I love the index in the back. I love that it came in a nice box, it was packaged very well. Has a ribbon to mark your page. Some reviews mentioned the pages sticking together (from the gold on the edges) - I did not have that problem. Its a bible, as long as you're gentle with it the pages separate easily.

Micro Bible journaling in a study bible? Yes please! I am LOVING everything about this gem of a Bible. This size is perfect. It weighs about the same, if not lighter, than my She Reads Truth CSB Bible. Note that this is the standard size of this Bible and the margin space is a little bigger compared to the personal (smaller font) or the large print (larger font) versions of the LASB. While this isn’t designed to be a “journaling” Bible, I find there’s plenty of margin space for thoughts, notes, and prayers. There is barely any bleed through from pens and highlighters that designed for Bible paper. I love Mr. Pen brand the most. Lastly, I adore the NLT version and the application notes are so enriching to my personal study. I’ve also added my own flair - bible tabs and self adhesive wallpaper to the inside cover. The outer purple is gorgeous. I did have to carefully separate some pages due to the gold trim, but it was easy and using your fingers to slowly flip through the pages helps separate them over time, as other reviews have mentioned. Just go slowly and you’ll be fine. None of my pages have ripped while peeling them apart. You will not regret this Bible, and the purple cover is absolutely beautiful as well!

Loveee everything aboutthe Bible, but it's too heavy

I absolutely love this Bible! The print is clear and easy to read, and the layout makes it simple to follow along whether I’m doing daily devotionals or deeper study. The cover feels durable and high-quality, and it has a beautiful design that makes me excited to pick it up every day. What I appreciate most is how it helps bring the Word of God to life in such an accessible way. It’s the perfect Bible for both personal study and sharing with others. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a well-made, inspiring edition!
