Zondervan, a division of HarperCollins Christian Publishing, is pleased to announce the release of two New International Version (NIV) Bibles designed to help men and women navigate the challenges of today’s society – Flourish – The NIV Bible for Women and Rooted – The NIV Bible for Men.
“We are so pleased to make these new editions available to readers, knowing each one is tailored to meet the unique needs of men and women,” said Melinda Bouma, vice president and publisher of Bibles for Zondervan. “With an emphasis on using Scripture to refute the myths men and women believe, we are hopeful these Bibles will speak God’s wisdom into readers’ hearts and help them see themselves as the Father sees them – as wholly and fully loved.”
Drawing on the truths of Scripture, the features in each Bible strengthen readers with insights and encouragement for the issues they face. In Flourish – The NIV Bible for Women, readers are introduced to 30 women from the Bible who offer frank insights from the best and worst of their lives. Rooted – The NIV Bible for Men, features factoid-filled profiles highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of 50 biblical men. Each edition contains myths articles that expose commonly accepted myths of our culture —misconceptions about love, relationships, God, fulfillment, sex, faith, and identity. These resources combine to offer readers the knowledge, strength, and clarity to navigate life’s challenges with God’s Word as their guide.
