Most Bible fanatics have notes throughout their favorite
Bible and love sharing these thoughts
with others should the opportunity arise. Zondervan has released a new New International Version Bible called “NIV Ragamuffin Bible: Meditations for the Bedraggled, Beat-Up, and Brokenhearted
”. Throughout the NIV Ragamuffin Bible: Meditations for the Bedraggled, Beat-Up, and Brokenhearted

Richard Francis Xavier Manning a.k.a. Brennan Manning was
born April 27, 1934 and died just shy of his 79th birthday April 12, 2013. As a Marine he served in the Korean war before
graduating from Satin Francis University. In 1963 he was ordained a Franciscan
priest. During his life journey this man who loved God became an alcoholic and
overcame its’ stronghold.
THE NIV Ragamuffin Bible: Meditations for the Bedraggled, Beat-Up, and Brokenhearted
contains reflections by Brennan Manning.
Unlike other Bibles the thoughts and ideas do not distract from the readers
ability to study independent of someone else’s commentary.

A suggested reflection begins:
Psalm 84:3 “Home is that sacred space-external or internal where we don’t have to be afraid; where we are confident of hospitality and love…..”
That is just the first sentence of four, a simple thought
that can lead to an hour meditation.
Yes, there are comments from Brennan Manning that are greater in depth
none of which I found controversial.
I recommend this book to my readers, particularly if you
know of someone going through an addiction.
It is well worth purchasing and an excellent tribute to a man of God
I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for
an honest review.
