See the Minister’s Bible, the Preaching Bible, and the Preacher's Bible

  • The Minister’s Bible from Thomas Nelson uniquely equips busy pastors for every occasion, with sermons, readings, outlines, and prayers.
  • The Preaching Bible from Thomas Nelson is perfect for anyone who reads Scripture in public because of its attention to ease-of-reading features.
  • The NIV Preacher's Bible from Zondervan will help your congregation follow along, word for word, line by line, page by page; as you preach from God's Word. Designed to be paired with the Comfort Print NIV Pew and Worship Bible and yet maintain their individual distinct font and page layout, each page of these two different Bibles begins and ends with the same word.
