This Bible is interesting. I was expecting a lot more from it then what I see inside. As much as I wanted to give this a great rating of at least 4 stars, I had to go with a 3 star rating. This Bible is great for those looking to grow in prayer, but it's not extremely prayer packed. There are prayers thrown in between a few verses, but nothing in-depth.

I think the prayers are great as prompts -- especially for journaling. They are scripture-based prayers and they are done by great Christians from church history. There is an author index that helps with knowing more about those who give the prayers within the Bible. There's a prayer index to help you find the prayers within each book. The scripture index and concordance are also good.

Do I think this is an essential Bible? Nope. Do I think it has its good merits? Yes. 

Overall, I think you can go without. If you're looking for something focused on scripture this could be of good use, but it would have to do with your preference in Bible.

Blessings,
