I loved the Grandmother's Bible and have wanted it for years. The colors are beautiful and what is inside is perfect. The problem is that the words of Christ are not in red or somehow highlighted. I must have this feature before I can buy this Bible.

The Grandmother's Bible has put me back on track in praying for my grandchildren. I appreciate the suggestions giving ideas about how to better connect with this younger generation. My only disappointment was the color of the text, expecially the devotional text. This grandmom's eyes needs good old black and white. I can read it now, but don't know what the next five or ten years will bring.

I love the way the grandmother's bible was put together, but the overall size of the bible threw me for a loop for it was text book size. I can only read it sitting at my desk or at a table. I can't read it why lying down in bed which was a big disappointment to me.

This bible is perfect for a growing in Christ Grandma with a 20 yr span of Granchildren. It was a gift from us 4 daughters to cultivate her relationship with Jesus and her Grandchildren. We liked the different approaches and fullness of a teaching bible and the devotions with structured prayer ideas!

This Grandmother's Bible is so helpful in praying for my grandchildren. The prayers tie in with the Scripture reading for the day and help me pray specifically for important/major areas of their lives. No more "generic" prayer for me!!

THis product was a gift for my sister who has two grandaughters. She was so excited with the whole format, the picture pocket in the front was a plus to hold a recent picture of her family.She loves the writings shared by so many Christian women, and they are perfect for her grandchildren at this time of their lives.

I absolutely love this Bible! My husband gave me one for my birthday and I gave 3 to friends for Christmas this year. They have beautiful devotionals and prayer thoughts for your grandchildren and a wonderful listing for all of your grandchildren--even allowing them to sign the Bible. It is just really a very, very wonderful gift for any Christian grandmother.

This is a wonderful Bible for each and every Christian grandmother on your Christmas list! I'm giving it to a few very close friends this year. It has timely and wonderful messages in it from well known Christian grandmothers that will be a blessing to everyone.

Undescribable joy to open this Grandmother's edition of the Bible! It is an amazing gift because once you open it you want to send one to every Grandmother you know! I know I did and can't put it down! This Bible makes Grandparenting a breeze! Christ will be glorified as each Grandparent realizes the enormous gift that Grandchildren are and the Grandmother's Bible that keeps on giving to the generations that come behind us!
