I started a Bible in a year challenge my freshman or sophomore year of college. I finished it tonight, about 5 years later. Although I do wish I was more intentional in my reading, I’m encouraged that it was possible, and I intend to do it again and again as long as I live, because there is so so much more for me to learn. I’ve been saved since sophomore year of high school (about 8 years now), and I can say I believe now in the truth of the Bible and the Gospel message now more than ever. This edition is particularly helpful with an accurate, understandable translation with a lot of context provided in notes and verse references. If I were to get another Bible, I would get one with two ribbons instead of one (to hold my place in both testaments). I would also suggest you keep the cardboard thing it comes in. It is very worn now, but my Bible looks essentially brand new, and I bring it literally everywhere with me.

There's not enough room to write what I learned and continue to learn from this book! Continuously reading it, especially now that I am in a bible class about the prophets, and learn more and more every day. :)
Anything NASB by the Lockman Foundation is awesome! Been reading the ASB then the NASB since I was 8 years old, and got a copy of the ASB in the Children's Dedication at the Unitarian-Universalist church in Portsmouth, NH. It's the greatest translation IMO, one-step away from the Literal Bible translation. Very accurate!
I prefer the NASB (New American Standard Bible) and also enjoy the Amplified translation at times, but have all but stopped using the NIV. The Student Study NASB Bible has been excellent and reliable for many years, with excellent notes, insights, and commentary, since it was first introduced to me during undergrad at a Christian university in Olathe, Johnson County, Kansas. I recently purchased my second copy since that original one decades ago, replaced only because they eventually fell apart. I have read this Bible more than one time from cover-to-cover, and generally continuously read it.
I started reading the bible in January 2012 as one of those bargains you shouldn't make with God. I had never read it all the way through and I've taken it it very slow so I could absorb it but I'm left with more questions and challenges to my faith . I guess that's the point. Anyways, I finally accomplished this task and it feels great.
I actually read several different Bibles - NIV Life Application Study Bible, Amplified Bible (2 different ones) Thompson Chain (my 1st bible)and several others... :)
This is a great Bible to have on your Kindle for using in church. The ability to move between books, find a verse, etc, is easy and as fast or faster than looking it up in a paper version.
