I'm adding this one to my sidebar - I've used E-sword for years and don't know why I haven't told you about it before!

E-sword is a free full featured Bible program that lets you download many additional free components, including:

• the Bible in an astounding number of versions and languages
  
• commentaries
• Bible dictionaries
• devotions
• add'l books, graphics, and study guides

One of my favorite features: Strong's Concordance is keyed into the included King James download! If you've already heard enough you can just trust me download the software, or go the to the home page and check it out for yourself.

Yes, there are many wonderful Bibles online, but this one works without the delay of waiting for pages to load and still works on the days when your Internet doesn't. :)

It even has the complete Geneva translation with the original spelling! Is that cool or what???

If your daughter received a doll from Vision Forum for Christmas (or any other 18" doll), you'll want to check out the adorable outfits and accessories from Wee Maidens!
The sisters who run this website gave us an outfit to try out and the girls love it! All of their choices are feminine and modest, unlike the wardrobes of many other dolls on the market. They offer a surprising variety of styles ranging from fancy dresses and historical costumes to sleepwear and many cute modern casual skirts and jumpers.
Each outfit comes with a full set of accessories: our skirt and top came with a backpack, necklace, and shoes. Prices are very reasonable, and each item is thoughtfully designed and hand made.
So if your daughter's little friend needs to expand her wardrobe a bit, now you know where to look!

Is it wrong to lust after a Bible? Take a look at this - can you believe it? And the price??? Here it is in leather for just a little more.
No, I don't need it. I love my own Bible, and this 1611 King James Bible would mostly sit on the shelf. But I would love to have it sitting on my shelf. I would love for it to sit right next to the Geneva Bible replica that I'm lusting after. sigh.

The thought of owning a replica of a 1611 King James Bible is especially exciting since we now have in our possession some real pre-1640 pages from the King James Bible. They're beautiful, and we'll be selling these on our Geneva Bible Pages site in the same formats as the pages from the ancient Geneva Bibles.
Yes, I know a little about the real King James and his reasons for commissioning the new Bible version, but it's a beautiful and poetic work based heavily upon the Geneva in the Old Testament and Tyndale's translation for the New Testament. We're making our way through some audio sermons on the history of the English church and the English Bible - facinating stuff!
I especially love the old King James for Psalms, but for daily use we read the New King James. The Reformation Study Bible is what Hubby and I have. No, the footnotes are not inspired and I think they're dead wrong occasionally but I love most of them! This is out of print now and hard to find (try here) but it's available in the English Standard version instead, which is what we bought our two oldest daughters for Christmas.

What version do you read? Why?
