The Treasure of God's Word compiled by Jack Countryman

   The Treasure of God's Word - Celebrating 400 Years of the King James Bible is an interesting read giving the history of the King James version of the Bible.  It is separated into sections of various verses relating to God's Kindness, God's Patience, God's Righteousness and God's Power, just to name a few.  In between every few sections is a nice history lesson on the origins of the King James version.

   For somebody who grew up on the New International Version and now reads other versions like, "The Message," this book gave a nice history lesson on the oldest version of one of the greatest books...the Bible. It is not a full on Bible or historical book about King James, but this small book (164 pages long) might make a great gift to somebody who likes this version or who would like to learn a little bit more about the King James Bible.  The way verses are put into various categories,  it also makes a nice "daily verse" book to help uplift and start your day.
