The Practicing the Way edition with an introduction by John Mark ComerIn our digitally distracted, fragmented, and hurried culture, many of us are simply too busy and exhausted to have a meaningful life with God. Practices that slow us down to attune to the peace and presence of Jesus are essential for our time. And few practices are more important than immersing ourselves in Scripture.As apprentices of Jesus, our aim isn't just to read Scripture or to know Scripture or even to believe Scripture. Rather, it is to be like Jesus' disciple Mary, who "sat at Jesus' feet, listening to all he said." It's to be with Jesus, and to be formed to be like him one page at a time. The NIV Lectio Bible was created with that end in mind: to give those walking in the Way of Jesus a way of listening to God on the pages of Scripture.This Lectio Bible is a companion to the Scripture Practice from John Mark Comer and Practicing the Way, a nonprofit that creates resources to help churches apprentice in the Way of Jesus. Learn more at practicingtheway.org/resources.Featuring an introduction by John Mark, the NIV Lectio Bible is intentionally designed to be as distraction-free as possible. Beautifully designed, single column, with no chapter or verse numbers or subheadings to interrupt your reading, this Bible allows you to fully immerse yourself into a seamless experience with Scripture as you invite Jesus to shape the architecture of your heart.

Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world." (John 18:36)From the publisher: "God calls believers to live faithfully in a way that flips the wisdom of our worldly kingdoms on its head. The goal of this Bible is to reflect the counter-cultural, or upside-down nature, of God's Kingdom as opposed to earthly values. We developed this Bible to answer the questions we hear from Bible readers--especially younger readers in the Millennial and Gen Z generations--asking how to think biblically about the slew of issues they confront in their daily world. What does the Bible say about sanctity of life, reproduction and abortion? How does the Bible help me think about God's creation, and my role in caring for the world he created? What am I supposed to think about the refugee in my land? I hear political jargon about immigration, but is that the same as loving my neighbor, wherever they come from? These questions and so many more are what led us to publish this topically-focused specialty Bible. With contributions from 44 scholars and teachers who are respected as experts in their area of contribution, this unique Bible provides commentary throughout Scripture to address the subject matter prevalent in culture today, but using the Bible as the foundation for providing the framework and foundation for how to live out God's Word."In a culture that has become exponentially polarized, it can be difficult to think biblically while loving well.
