[QUOTE="streak, post: 2267122, member: 11744"] Thank you all for all the suggestions. The wife and I spent an hour and a half at mardels tonight looking at different bibles and comparing them. She went as my Jimeney cricket to remind me to get what I really want and not leave with something that isn't really what I want. There was a bery nice and extremely informative man there that was superbly helpful but unfortunately I have forgotten his name. What I ended up with was actually a bible called [URL="http://www.amazon.com/Manual-Bible-Men-Zondervan/dp/0310940990/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1376453943&sr=1-1&keywords=manual+bible+for+men"]Manual:The Bible for Men[/URL] it seemed as what I am looking for at this moment. The wife ended up with a [URL="http://www.amazon.com/Life-Application-Study-Bible-Personal/dp/1414359810"]NIV Life Application Study Bible[/URL]. This was a very close second for me as well.
