The Jesus Bible, NIV Edition, Continues Impact
Releasing earlier this year, The Jesus Bible, NIV Edition, with feature essays by, Louie Giglio, Max Lucado, John Piper, Ravi Zacharias and Randy Alcorn, lifts Jesus up as the lead story of the Bible through 350 articles and 700 features revealing Him throughout the entire 66 books of Scripture.

To the surprise of over 50,000 in attendance at Passion 2017, a special linen edition of The Jesus Bible, NIV Edition (Passion Publishing, Zondervan) was given to each of the 18 to 25 year-olds from 90 countries and all 50 states. Packing Atlanta’s Georgia Dome from Jan. 2 through 4, Passion is an annual conference spearheaded by Giglio and his wife Shelley bringing young adults from around the globe together to proclaim the name of Jesus, with daily sessions featuring renowned speakers and artists.
The hashtag #TheJesusBible has allowed people on Instagram and Twitter to share their findings and updates from their devotions. “I love the way that it daily reminds me that Jesus doesn’t just appear in the first 5 books of the New Testament but is spoken about throughout Genesis and all the way to Revelation,” shared a reader on Instagram.
“It was so in our hearts to help people see that the Bible is 66 books, but it is one story and that one story is about one name. From the very first page, Jesus is the centerpiece of the story,” shared Giglio with Moody Broadcasting’s Nancy Turner. “We want to help people pick up Scripture, the holy, living, breathing Word of God, and we want them to see and savor Jesus in every book and on every page. That was the heartbeat of The Jesus Bible.”
