The Word on Fire Bible is a groundbreaking new book introducing readers to the strange, colorful world of the Bible. It was designed to appeal not just to Christians, but to nonbelievers, searchers, and those with far more questions than answers. It doesn't presume any experience with the Bible; in fact, it was created for people reading the Bible seriously for the first time, who may be unsure of what to make of its many events and characters.
This Bible will eventually be a rich, heirloom collection composed of 7 volumes. The first five are available now. It is available in three different binding styles: leather, hardback or paperback. Each exquisitely crafted. We carry the leather bound in store, but are happy to order you either the hardback or paperback version if you prefer. Please just send us an email to create the order.

It's a wonderful translation--both for those who have never read the Bible and for those who have studied it for years.
