It Is the Only Bible You Will Ever Need. Review: Large Print Version is the Way To Go - Love this Bible. I recently began the Bible In A Year podcast and bought this companion large print edition to read along with the series. Well made. It has the Bible In A Year timeline and lots of additional study guides to help you understand what you are reading/listening too. I especially like the color coding and the summary at the beginning of each book contained in the Bible. The maps in the back of the Bible are also very helpful. The three attached ribbons are helpful as you are usually reading three different chapters each day. The larger type is easy to read. Because the large type doesn't leave room for note taking I also purchased the Bible In A Year Notebook. One picture (with pencil) is to highlight the size of the printed word. I highly recommend this version of the Great Adventure Catholic Bible. Review: This is the best Bible I've ever read.

Best Catholic Bible
This is an amazing Bible. Has so much more information. The breakdown of sections and descriptions and the notes throughout are so informative and interesting. Section for following the Bible in a year timeline is perfect. And the timeline chart is amazing. Great for personal development. Highly recommend of your looking for a Catholic Bible. It can be read alone . But best with the Bible in a year podcasts. Absolutely love it. Highly recommend.

Beautiful 14 pt font Bible- with Adventure Timeline insert!- perfect for annotating like crazy!
I've been listening to the Bible in a Year podcast and through that heard about the Ascension Great Adventure Bible. It's awesome! The large, clear font, the maps, the overall layout, the Great Adventure Timeline... The timeline is included as a removable fold out thingie in the back. Such an incredible way to lay out the content of the Bible. It's really changed how I think about it! There are chapter-like introductions to the different sections of the Bible, with really insightful academic and theological information. I love the heft of the Bible. (You may not, though, if you're used to smaller editions with smaller font and no additional study material that are easier to carry.) I like the faux- leather cover. I annotate the bejebus out of this Bible as I listen to the podcast. The paper is nice to the touch and a quite a bit thicker than typical Bible paper. My dense pencil annotations don't show through. The font is... 14 point? I think? I can read it without my stupid readers which tells you the font is way bigger than in a typical novel. And masses bigger than in a typical Bible. The text itself is the Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition. My understanding is the RSV was originally a Protestant translation that the Catholic church tweaked. While doing a bunch of random reading I also learned there are some differences in Protestant v Catholic Bible books content. And some differences in Bible books among Protestant denominations, too. In the 1530s, apparently, Martin Luther moved seven Old Testament books (the Deuterocanonical books or Apocrypha) to a separate section of the Bible, argued they were not equal to Scripture, and questioned the canonicity of New Testament books like James and Revelation. Um. Wow. After some thought I decided I'd rather read the Bible the way it was put together in 380-390 AD rather than how Luther decided to do it in the 1530s. AITA...? The guy criticized the Pope but then low key acted like an unelected one himself, seems to me... Am I right? I mean... he chopped up/ reedited/ and then just kinda loosely translated the Bible! What the actual? I'm of unspecified Christian persuasion, so I've got no horse in this race. Don't come after me accusing me of heresy. Anywho. Great Bible! Get it if you have dodgy eyes and like scrawling all over it and underlining everything!

Best bible I've had, large font sized version considerably more expensive
The best bible I've had. There is no need to buy the Bible timeline chart separately even if that is advertised unless you want to hang it or use as an instructional aid. The timeline is in the Bible itself. This large font version was very difficult to find and I had to bite the bullet on the expensive price difference between this and the normal font. I wouldn't get one that I can't conveniently read. Unfortunately, this large sized version was not available directly from Ascension Press. You will get the most out of this Bible if you also do the Bible in a Year podcast by Ascension. One major thing to note is that there are summaries and cross references that are really helpful for understanding what it is... The Great Adventure! Also not that this is not handy for traveling, it is pretty heavy. Instead of buying bible tabs which adds so much to the cost of the Bible itself, I just used 3m file tabs that work beautifully and does not tear the pages if you want to refresh the tabs or relocate them, as tabs are bound to get squished if you carry your bible around. Nice maps too.

Big and quite heavy
I do a lot of Bible study at our church and although I love my Jerusalem Bible I wanted to get the Adventure Bible to go with the Bible time line study. I do write in my Bible and wanted one with room to do that. Well this is definitely a study bible with lots of room to write and goes perfectly with the study. I almost sent it back because of its size though. It’s twice as thick as I thought it would be. Everyone who sees it thinks it must be large print. I did buy the tabs to add to it. Now that I am using it I love it. Easy to read and take notes.
