African-American children and teens yearning for a full text bible designed specifically for them to understand and celebrate their rich heritage, as well as identify and interact with Scripture now have six inspiring choices available through Zondervan.
"These new Bibles are being introduced fast on the heels of last fall's debut of 'My Holy Bible for African-American Children,' in the New International Version translation," said Annette Bourland, senior vice president and publisher of ZonderKidzTM, a division of Zondervan. "All are culturally-relevant Bibles that we feel will stimulate Black youth in their spiritual journeys."
With this month's release of Our Heritage and Faith Holy Bible for African-American Teens, readers will focus on the traditions of the African-American church. One-hundred six pages of articles and essays help teens come to know the roots of their lives, their forms of worship, and their faith in God. Photos are included on tip-in pages to aid the teen readers' experience of learning about their heritage.
Other key features in this Bible align to enhance the full experience of the readings and further its compelling and cultural relevance. Notes on music, the black church and contemporary heroes provide a rich thread to complement the Bible passages. A presentation page includes a family section. Eight pages of maps help readers visualize the lands of the Bible.
