The New Testament for Everyone is the result of a passionate conviction that scripture should be something that everyone can read, understand and enjoy.   
  
Broken up into easy-to-read, bite-sized chunks, and now including helpful introductions to each biblical book, informative maps and a substantial glossary of key words, here is a new rendering of ancient wisdom that can be read like a novel, studied in sections or used as an aid to daily devotion.

The text of the New Testament, drawn from the New Testament for Everyone series, fully integrated to smooth joins between sections and provide a level of internal consistency, for example in how individual Greek terms are rendered. It also represents Tom Wright's view of the New Testament, something that has helped to shape his theology.

\["Want to get to grips with the New Testament?","This accessible guide brings each passage to life","Perfectly suited to daily study"\]

In a conversational and accessible voice, Tom Wright opens up the whole of the New Testament in bite sized chunks in this 'For Everyone' study

The text of the New Testament, drawn from the New Testament for Everyone series, fully integrated to smooth joins between sections and provide a level of internal consistency, for example in how individual Greek terms are rendered. The translation is an accurate rendering of the Greek original, which is the product of a single mind (whose thought has developed over time) rather than a committee. It also represents Tom Wright's view of the New Testament, something that has helped to shape his theology.

\["Seeking to understand the New Testament in a different way?","Tom Wright provides a modern, accessible Bible translation of the second testament","You'll find fewer barriers to understanding the Bible"\]

Removing some of the barriers to understanding the Bible, this New Testament translation by Tom Wright is clear and speaks to this generation

The Good Book Stall

When I am presented with a 'different' translation of the Bible, the first thing I do is to go to a few verses which have played a key role in the formation of my life as a Christian. Then, I look at a couple of 'difficult to understand' or controversial verses and finally, I sit down and read longer passages to try and get the feel of the text. This fresh translation of the New Testament by Tom Wright scores high on each of the above criteria. I love the easy flow of the narrative and the way it is broken down into bite-sized chunks. The clear, helpful maps placed mainly at appropriate points in Acts are a bonus. In his preface, Tom shares his reasons for producing this new translation and then he gives a very useful introduction to the rationale behind his work. Then he writes: 'My hope and prayer for this book is that many people will discover through it just how exciting and relevant the New Testament really is.' I'm sure that prayer will be answered. This truly is a book for Everyone.
