NIV Revolution: The Bible For Teen Guys
Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

The Revolution Begins with You! In case you didn't know, you're in a war. Your enemy is dead serious. He wants you to think the battle raging around you is no big deal. It is a big deal. Your life, your relationships, your world---it's all a big deal, and it takes a big, God-filled heart to make a difference. It's time to stand up and fight for what is right. Time to be a revolutionary---living your faith on the edge, challenging things that need to be challenged, discovering new possibilities, and helping others to discover them as well. Fill your hands with Revolution. It'll open your eyes, strengthen your courage, and guide you like a compass toward a life worth living. But this is a Bible! Yeah---a Bible like none other you've ever read, for today's teenage guy going toe-to-toe with a hard-hitting world. A world God knows all about. He's the authority when it comes to understanding girls, sex, communication, drugs, divorce, relationships, success, parents, popularity, peer pressure and everything else guys face. He also knows what makes you tick, he loves you more than you can ever imagine, and he wants you to experience a life of purpose, power and impact. The features in this Bible will strengthen you and hone your spiritual fighting edge. Battlelines show you how other teen guys deal with relationships, sex, drug abuse, and other real-life issues. Match-Ups pit the good guys against the bad guys of the Bible to uncover winning---and losing---approaches to life. Challenge Notes do just that: challenge you to reach for everything God wants you to be. And there's plenty more---enough to help you make a kingdom-difference in the world around you. A Revolution of the heart isn't about how confident, strong, or popular you are. It's about what God can do in you and through you. He can revolutionize your relationships, your opportunities, and the whole course of your life. He can use you to change the world around you. Are you ready to find out how? Then look inside, and let the revolution begin. Revolution features: * Complete New International Version---today's most read, most trusted translation * 125 Battlelines interviews share solid insights from everyday, normal guys about sex, conflict, music, anger, addiction, popularity and more. * 12 full-color tip-ins give you 50 Ways to Be Radical for God, 100 Things Real Men Do, and other ideas to help you revolutionize all aspects of your life. * 100 Instant Messenger-style Challenge Notes paraphrase key Scriptures that call you onward and upward to all that God has for you. * Over 200 Now or Never call-outs challenge you to discover God's truth on a variety of faith-related issues. * 100 Live the Adventure notes show you how to change your life and revolutionize your impact on others. * 50 Match-Ups capture the conflict between good guys and bad guys of the Bible.

This is a great new Bible recently released by Zondervan. I've taken occasion to really look it over and I am impressed.The pages of this Bible are filled with one line study portions. There are several recurring themes for added reading that allow a young guy to explore the meanings of the Holy writ. They're short enough to pay attention to and rich enough to add something meaningful to the text.There are dozens and dozens of colorful pages with tips and ideas for living the Christian Life. How about ideas for a date or team projects, there here with enough flair to grab a boy's attention and help him complete "steps" of life that will honor God.I really pay attention to bindings and overall book construction, and Revolution: The Bible for Teen Guys is well put together. This Bible even feels like a guy's Bible. It is stout and has nice proportions. The hardback version has a cool cover design and is dark with just a tiny bit of color. The Leather addition has a rich leather or leather like appearance and feel. Supple would be a great word to describe the black leather cover.If your looking for a Bible that a teen guy can feel pretty good about carrying around in front of his friends, this one will work. If you're looking for a guide to help spur a young man on to greater maturity in Christ, this is still your book. I would feel very comfortable giving this Bible to guys 12-16, and wouldn't be a bit surprised if the older guys liked it too ( I know I do). This is just one high quality offering in the New International Version.

Wow! This is a fabulous bible! I highly recommend it for young men. We just bought this for our oldest son, who is 12 going on 30!..=) He reads it everyday, and I don't have to ask him to! He told me the other day that it is the first bible he has had that is fun to read, and that makes sense to him- he said it's like they took all his questions and tailored his bible specifically for him! Definately well worth the money- this is a great version!

This is the perfect study bible for teen boys. It relates to everyday life situations that they face and helps them through it without being corny, cheesy or hard to understand. It is a thick book, and is so very helpful

This bible was purchased for my 16 year old nephew. He was excited when he received it & said that he has been reading it. He says that he can understand the Bible for the first time. It has been great for him. Would highly recommend this Bible. In fact I purchased another one for another nephew.

As a Christian, I received this Bible as a Christmas present my senior year of high school. Needless to say, it was pretty good overall. For a teen guy, it provided explanations and interpretations of some particularly difficult or hard to understand passages, and it provided some life applications and ocnversation ideas about topics within Christianity that would be useful for young teenage male Christians. It does not teach a theology of either liberal "feel-good" Christianity, nor does it succumb to a message of "hellfire-and-brimstone" Christianity. It gets into the nooks and crannies of some of the key conflicts and matchups of certain individuals within the Bible.However, it is not without its flaws. The main flaw with it is that the commentary is, at times, highly dogmatic. This may be due to the fact that there were only like 3 commentators or so, all of whom largely shared the same perspective--conservative (but reasonably so) Baptist Church theology (I'm Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod). Another minor flaw is that in some of the "daily life" interaction scenarios, it seems a bit scripted and a tad bit unrealistic, which may be frustrating when individuals try to apply those tips to real life interactions.So, if you're a teenage guy from the age of 12-17, this is a decent Bible for you. But don't go into it expecting a top-notch, absolutely stunning Bible that will answer all your problems and questions and concerns in a heartbeat.

I purchased this Bible for my girlfriend's 14 year old son for Christmas. I reviewed a lot of Bibles trying to find the right fit. Presenting a Bible to a teenager is not the easiest of task especially if you want them to use it and read it. Let's be honest. I believe a standard Bible may not interest them, be overwhelming to them and/or hard to understand. I wanted something that he could recognize with, be understandable, and show application. Some Bibles I looked at were too kiddie, some too old. I decided on this one and I am glad I did. If you say the standard leather bound KJV is the way to go for a 14 year old boy then that is your opinion, but here are the reasons I like this Bible. First, I think the cover is appealing for the age group. It looks rough and tumble with BOLD Revolution on the front. (That should spark some interest) Also, many teen Bibles say "boys" and boys do not want to be called boys, at least I didn't. It says "Teen Guys", that's better. Second, I really loved the contents and teaching points. It presents the Word, scenarios and difficult situations one can recognize with at that age and talking points (Battlelines), Good Guys vs. Bad Guys, etc. Honestly, I am a little jealous. I wish I would have had a Bible like this at his age. Oh, and yes he actually reads it. This would be great for a Dad with a group or boys as a study group, boys church groups, BSA, etc. I think anyone looking for a Bible for a young teenage boy battling through life should have this Bible to help him develop his relationship with God, learn about Jesus and his teachings and just general things teenage boys face. Give this Bible a try. I do not think you will be disappointed!
