Over all the Spiritual Renewal study Bible is a nice easy to use study guide. The hard cover gives it a sturdy make for durability. There is a commentary for each verse of the bible. Key people of the bible have a profile page within the chapter that they are introduced and gives a summary of that person. The profile includes negative aspects and positive aspects of that person. This feature is a good add to help someone that has possibly never read a bible or who is a young convert understand about who they are reading about. The index has a spiritual, discipline, devotional profile sections. The key spiritual disciplines can be found throughout the bible but the index breaks down each key and gives the location of each key devotional.

The only negative thing I found was the small font size, especially the commentary. People who have trouble with small print may have trouble reading this Bible.

I gave this Bible 4 stars. I would buy this Bible for a new Christian.

I was given a copy of this Bible by the publisher for my honest review.
