The title of this little book is deceptive because it’s much more than just a listing of 100 Bible verses that will change your life. Although each of the 100 chapters opens with a verse of Scriptures from two translations of the Bible, the King James Version, which is my favorite translation, and the New International Version, which is written in modern English and easier for new Christians to understand. Although each new chapter opens with a verse of Scripture, the author explains what these Scriptures mean and how they are just as meaningful today as they were in the day when God inspired them to be written.
100 Bible Verses That Will Change Your Life by Mark Stibble is a book that every Christian needs to read at least once a year, right along with doing their Through the Bible In A Year Plan. Read it straight through the first time to get the big picture and then go back and read it one chapter at a time, meditating on what Mark has to teach, praying over it, seeking out ways to apply your new knowledge to your life. The chapters are short, so you can do two or three every week as part of your morning or evening devotional times.

An excellent review through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation revealing a greal deal of God's plan for humankind from beginning to end. The 100 verses give a great story of God's teaching and purpose. Readers should follow up this book with a thorough study of the Book of Acts as the apostles went throughout the world preaching and teaching the Gospel. Acts 2:38 makes it very clear that once one has heard and believes, repentance and baptism follows, and that baptism/immersion under water represnets our dying with Christ and rising up again to live the life that Christ planned for us.
Read 100 Bible Verses to give you a beginning and ending plan, and then study each and every book of the Bible, perhaps reading the Gospels and Acts first. Thank you to this author for sharing his knowledge of the Bible.

Enlightening
This book introduced me to information of the Bible that I was unaware of. I learned about many prophets and the influence of the disciples. The book provided me with helpful information of the Bible so I could look this up for myself. I was very disappointed that it was only in ebook format. I could really use it when I am in Bible studies at church. I highly recommend this book.

These verses come direct from God's word
I have been greatly blessed by reading these verses and praying that God will speak to me through them. He speaks every time I open His word.

I enjoyed this book very much.
Each of the 100 Bible verses, which start with Genesis and move through to Revelation, are presented in both the KJV and the NIV. They are then followed by a short commentary. Each of the 100 Bible verses can be used as a short devotional for the day. (I did two per day.)
The purpose is to progressively lead the reader into understanding God the Father's love for each of us individually. Because this is the purpose, the devotional verses the author has chosen are not the ones we tend to memorize, but that's OK.
I generally found the short commentaries uplifting and fitting well with biblical orthodoxy, which is very important to me.
Please don't skip the last section, "A Lover Letter from Our Father." It reveals in a nutshell the nature of our Father and how much He loves us.
This book is a good choice for the Christian who struggles to believe God truly loves him or her.

Wish I could give it 2½ stars. This book was ok. I had a few highlights and a couple of thoughtful moments from it, but mostly it wasn't anything new to me. I suppose a new Christian or someone who hasn't read the Bible much might find a good amount of information in it, but nothing major stood out to me. Not terrible but a slight disappointment.

I am no stranger to the Word of God but this little book gave me insights I did not have before. It is a beautifully written walk through the Bible and renews and strengths one's faith as a Child of God.

Broken down
This book was broken down into understandable explanations and in a way we'd never heard put just like it is. I think all people should read this book, some things on here I've never witnessed a pastor/reverend/preacher explain.

Father's letter
The letter at the end, which ties together all 100 selections, is my favorite part. I want to write it in a journal & read it every day.

101 Bible verses that hi-light the love letter of a father to his children.
None of the chosen passages are exceptionally revelatory but the final chapter is a beautiful summary.

A very good book.
This book is a good overview of the Bible. It starts at the beginning and ends at the end of the Bible. Great for the new Christian.
