This is beautiful! And off topic but you look amazing in that color 😍
I am so glad I am not the only one who has several Bibles..
I'm pretty sure most Christians have at least 2 or 3 bibles I used to have 7 but the spines started to fall apart so I gave them to my mom who doesn't go to church super often so you don't have to worry about the Bible falling apart away from home
NIV is a great translation for beginners as well as NLT. Get Warren Wiersbe OT and NT bible commentary, it's so interesting itself to read alone. If you are a beginner bible commentery is VERY important. John McArther NKJV one year bible is also a great choice. Also remember, a pretty bible should be your last concern, a bible you read should be your first.:)
I enjoyed this video. Thank you.
It’s ok to feel this,but being with Jesus will be a zillion times better❤️
i recently got my first hosanna revival bible and its beautiful!
i recently got my first hosanna revival bible and its beautiful!
😅 wow that was kind of embarrassing when you're husband ratted you out about you not Being big on reading😂
hahah he lives to embarrass me! but I do read alot! especially lately
@@thelayitdownpodcast 😂 got to take the Bad with the good huh
when people first become a Christian, I tell them that the best translations to start with are the NLT and/or the NIV. The translators try to make them easy to read. The ESV is more literal translation and is great for those who have studied the bible for a while. I'm glad that you went from atheism to believing in Christ. My brother is an atheist but I don't push him. He comes to me with questions about the bible. He believes that bible is true but he doesn't want to believe in God. I love my brother and hope that one day he will come to Christ.
Just because it's easy to read doesn't mean it's the right translation. KJV is the only correct translation and is the only one that kept the beauty of God's word.
@@BiblicalTeachings the NIV is literally missing entire scriptures.
As someone with social anxiety, going out on the street to preach the gospel seems super exhilarating and exciting. Not a lot of people would have that courage. And getting into discussions about God with people who have a differing view is probably an exciting experience.
Psalms 139
Hello, I’m just starting my bible journey. Could you possibly lead me to the one you’re actually highlighting in this video?
It's Hosanna Revivals Marlo Edition NLT Journaling Bible!
This song sounds like something that should have been in a twilight movie 😊
These days I'm feeling incredibly bored about everything: praying, fasting, playing video games, etc... I try to talk with God sometimes, but I don't hear Him. If I could hear Him clearly and have conversations with Him, I would PROBABLY be less bored.
I’ve never seen faith like that before. We pray that our faith becomes stronger everyday, just like being in the gym everyday.
I needed to hear this today! Very powerful message.
I have that same bible in the KJV
That message you wrote down that you are questioning is from god, is definitely from god. I got chills when you were reading it. I just wanted to tell you that so you don’t doubt it.
Please may i ask which book the beautiful devotion was from pls? x
Read. The. Talmud.
dont lie, its boring as f***
26:01 that is a good idea 👍🏽
I really liked 8:00
Perhaps you just need meditation or a good therapist.
Nah! God is sufficient. It's normal to worry and be anxious sometimes.
@@thelayitdownpodcast god is a form of coping without dealing with the real problem. It’s like giving up alcohol by switching to heroin.
Sarah Young's books are not biblical, so do not use or recommend. Sarah Young denied the sufficiency of scriptures!!!!
Am finding that is very hard for myself to pray. Luckily the church is big on pray and deliverance pray
No books are essential, only Jesus Christ is enough
haha this is true! These things just compliment your faith walk!
Amen praise the Lord Jesus Christ ✝️❤️✝️🔥👊🏻✝️
Amen! Your right but they do make it very hard to have that relationship with the lord when they are always complaining about it. Jesus Christ is lord ✝️❤️🙌🏻🔥❤️👊🏻✝️
Firstly, I want to start off with saying your video is wonderful and informative for those beginning their religious/spiritual journey. Wonderfully done, and keep it up! As for markers, I use regular pencil crayons (a.k.a. coloured pencils) to mark my Bible, it's affordable, last nearly forever, and never ever bleeds through the insanely thin pages. You can use them to highlight verses or words by shading the whole section or just underlining, each carrying a different meaning. Now to my main point, I have read many different versions of the Bible (KJV, KJV 1611, NIV, ESV, NASB, Interlinear Bible, and the Geneva Bible) and have found the KJV to be the best to learn and study from because it is closest to the original text while somewhat close the modern English. Something to remember is that both God and Jesus speak in parables, which is why being close the original is better as it preserves the original meaning and context of the scriptures and is open to your personal interpretation and not from someone else perspective. Each time someone grows their perspective changes and with that also the meaning of certain verses, thus further increasing your personal spiritual growth. Note: Just like in school you always want to learn from source documents not someone else's opinion/interpretation. This will always give you truth.
I agree 100%. My very first Bible was a KJV, but it was a children's Bible. My parents got it for me when I was very young. When I was in my teens I bought a NIV Women's Study Bible, and then about ten years ago I bought a NKJV, after realizing that the NIV has entire scriptures missing. Intentionally. It wasn't a printing error. I've used that NKJV a LOT, so it's showing some wear, and I've had to repair the spine once already so I've bought a few more since then, and have gravitated back towards the KJV. As a side note, I recently got some seriously old KJV Bibles at an estate sale. They are in fair condition, and one has notes in the margins from the original owner. It is really neat to see how older Bibles were made, and how they compare to what is being made today.
Great podcast. I can relate to Susanna with gaming and social media addictions. I currently in the process of getting counselling to help with my addictions. I can be obsessive sometimes as part of my autism spectrum. Super grateful for your podcasts as a believer in Christ👏
Aw! Its super easy to becomr addicted to these sorts of things. I (Susannah) am starting to break my Stardew Valley obsession, where I start to do other things with my day but its only a matter of time before something else catches my attention!
I was actually doing the same, basicly playing games for hours non-stop, but ever since i quit them and i dont play with them, and i also quit my social media scrolling addiction, I am as grateful to God as possible and my focus is the best it has ever been. The best possible thing i did, i think.
thanks amazing!!!
I loved this podcast. I really needed it today and it was so encouraging, especially to my current situation. Thank you so much for sharing. God should always be first in every area of my life. God I love you! God I praise you!
Thank you so much! We are so happy it encouraged you!
@@thelayitdownpodcast your very welcome! God bless
God bless you.
God bless!
Very nice video!!
thank you!!
Amen
Hey! I just want to say thank you for sharing. And I like that shirt on you it compliments your skin so well. And I want to encourage you to keep going no matter what life throws at you always remember that God got you. ✨
Thank you so much! This is so sweet!
I haven't since friday 😔
Please, this is just my humble opinion, if you were in the presence of the Lord would you continue with your POTTY mouth. As for me, I will not tolerate anyone using my Saviours name as a curse word 😢😢😢 Why is it we have to conform to the worldly ways in order to FIT IN? WE ,as Christians are to set an example. Can you imagine what it is going to be like on judgement day 🥵🫣Always ask in every situation, “What would Jesus Do “
Thank you for sharing your experiences. The transition is hard, but it can be done, and it’s so worth it!
I totally agree!
Any recommendations for large print ESV with room for notes?
at this moment, no just because I am not familiar with any Bible's like that! I'm sure there are some but not any I have particularly used!
Hosanna Revival has large print ESV journaling Bible. Amazon has a pretty purple one, too. I’m sure more colors available.
Amen! Praise the Lord Jesus Christ ✝️❤️🔥🙌🏻🩷👊🏻🤍✝️
I absolutely loved this video! Thank you for sharing! The Daily Grace Co. has this SUPER cool book called The Theology Handbook, and on page 94 there is an awesome chart about the translations. I used to use NIV and NKJV pretty much my whole life growing up and even into adulthood, but now that I'm nearing 40, I have been super interested in other translations. I have recently fallen in love with the NLT; it's so easy to read and just lovely to enjoy and understand. This video really reassured me about something, too! My husband and I just chose a bible for his mother for Mother's Day, and we happened to choose the Thrive Bible. I am SO glad to hear an opinion on it and I am now very excited for her to receive it! Awesome content, I'm subscribing!
thank you so much!! I have another channel I just started since this turned into a podcast channel. Check my beacons link to find it 🥰

Old Mantra. They always go to Matthew. I hope one day the entire Religious Zealotry will wake up that it is all a fraud. The biggest fraud on the human race since the beginning of religion with simple Sun Worshippers.
Thanks for the comment!
❤❤ amen🙏😍
Never stop posting ❤️
Heard this and got the urge and power to get up back I pray God continues to keep you girl ! 💝
