I love the CEV - Contemporary English Version - of the Bible. It is so exciting! I love reading the translation on Biblegateway.com. But my copy of "Extreme Faith" is a bit disappointing, partly because the cover is not what was pictured on the typical copy of this Bible. The true disappointment comes in the dull, typical pages which, of course, do not appeal to youth as I had hoped. There are no illustrations (not one) between the covers of the book. There are only small-captioned, predictable headlines at the beginning of chapters - no colorful divisions or any "catchy" organization as I had expected in a Bible which attempts to appeal to youth. I thought this Bible would be more exciting than "The Message" Bible, but it is not. The translation needs to "come alive" more. Even "The Daily Walk" Bible is better organized & explained using better outlines similar to timelines. It's excellent reading & good translation, but it needs to be less dull looking & come alive more if it wants to appeal to youth.Read full review
