NLT Compact Bible, Filament-Enabled Edition (LeatherLike, Teal Palm, Red Letter)

This is ultimately my favorite bible I own! I use it for nearly all my reading and references despite having other study bibles that would work better. It’s just more convenient to pull this one out than to lug about my other ones. I initially bought this one for the Filament app perks but I have to say that as super convenient it is, I never use it and found another one that I started using instead. There’s nothing wrong with the app, it’s a super helpful resource, I just started a reading challenge on the different one and so it’s just my go-to app I use more because of that. The app in itself is quite impressive! You don’t need to have the Bible with you to use it and can still reference the whole thing digitally without it. It also has the option to read it to you which I didn’t know and was super useful from what I can see. I know much of that wasn’t advertised as a perks, so it’s worth the mention that it’s NOT JUST to be used for looking up specific pages even though that part is cool too! I did notice that because the print was smaller being a compact edition with smaller print, it was a little bit harder to scan the pages especially in lower light conditions. Not something that was impossible to do, but it just took a few more tries to do so, so that’s worth noting. Just use a better light to be able have the camera pick it up better to make it go faster.This Bible is beautiful on the cover and it’s in my favorite color as well as has the palm fronds on them and I love palm trees so it was only suiting and called out to me.This one does have the red words on it in case anyone is wondering and it is a compact one too so it is small. The text is also very small and can be hard to read in low light at times, especially the words on red, but I’m glad my eyes are not so gone that I can enjoy this one!This is the Bible I bring to church with me as it’s sure small and easy to tote around!It’s a lot smaller than I was expecting, but that’s ok!I kept the sleeve it came with just to protect the cover a little bit more and to help keep it closed in my bag as the tabs I added make it a bit thicker on the edges. I figure that will eventually wear out but that’s ok.This wasn’t wrapped in plastic at all and I’m ok with that but could still tell it was brand new (as it was supposed to be) because the pages were still all stuck together as a new book (especially one with gold lined pages) would be.The cover is soft and has a nice feel to it. The gold lined pages and text is gorgeous! I’m not a gold person, but it still goes together nicely!There isn’t any room to really take notes in the edition if anyone is wondering. I know I saw this particular bible being used on a YT’ers channel for journaling in, but it’s so small I don’t think it would be the best one to do so in unless it’s just being used with watercolors or Bible markers for highlighting in, but not so much for actually writing in. Any extra added texted taped in this one would make it be very thick very fast because it’s already so small as it is.I would highly recommend this Bible and would definitely buy again!

Love the quality and the colour, size of print. Good on the eyes.Would definitely recommend.

Love the size of this bible. I use it for my daily prayer. Easy to bring out.

I love the design on this Bible. I purchased this for a gift. It is so compact and easy to take with you where you go. I love that it is filament enabled to give more resources without making the Bible bulky.

Too small
