"If you've read one Bible translation for some time, I recommend trying the new Anglicised NLT for a refreshing change. It's an easy read with trusted scholarship supporting it."
"Combining accuracy with elegance and accessibility, and drawing on the best textual scholarship to help shed light on difficult passages, this new Anglicized edition of the NLT is one of the most readable and reliable translations of the Bible available today."
"Whether reflecting on the scriptures quietly or reading them aloud in a group, the lively language of the NLT is arresting and much to be recommended. This new edition from SPCK will surely help to bring greater clarity, depth and vibrancy to everyone's experience of God's word!"
"The Bible is such a gift from God that Christians over generations have worked diligently and creatively to provide translations that are faithful to the original manuscripts and speak in new and dynamic ways. The NLT does exactly that in communicating life and hope."
