BOOK REVIEW: NCV Revolve New Testament Biblezine



I recently reviewed NCV Revolve New Testament Biblezine for booksneeze.com.

I was excited to get this magazine as I have a teenage daughter. Upon receiving it, however, I have mixed feelings. It did, in fact, contain the entire New Testament. There were also short articles on fashion, dating, makeup...and text messages on just about every page.

While I thought the mojority of articles were good, I also thought they could have maybe been all placed in the back instead of dispersed throughout the Bible. As for the "text messages"...I have a strong dislike for "lack of spelling correctly" among a lot of young people today, so those did NOT impress me.

Overall, I would sugest this to parents with teen daughters. I would also suggest that parents talk to their daughters (and sons) about the importance of the Bible and that they shouldn't concentrate so hard on what the WORLD says but on what the WORD says.

I appreciate the opportunity to review this "Biblezine" and am now going to look into maybe attending a Revolve Tour with my daughter.
