NLT Christian Basics Bible (Black Letter Edition)$54.99
I like the simplicity of this bible format as it helps me focus on the text itself, as an alternative to using a study bible all the time. The Christian Basics Bible is aimed at people new to reading the bible, but even as someone who has grown up with the bible, I value how this version focuses on the bible's relevance to today. There are helpful notes throughout to provide insight into characters, places, contexts and biblical concepts, as well as introductions and overviews to each book. The cross references in these are also very helpful.
