I have loved my ESV translation Bible. Its accurate word-for-word translation and ease of readability has made a popular option for those who are serious students of the Bible. Mars Hill Church made the change from NIV to ESV almost two years ago and the congregation has embraced it wholeheartedly. Our Acts 29 Network pastors love the ESV and most, if not all, use it for their preaching version. In fact, every Acts 29 pastor receives free premium calfskin ESV Bible once he becomes a member. ESV is endorsed by some of the best scholars in the world and is used by John Piper and Desiring God and CJ Mahaney and Sovereign Grace.

Now, our friends at Crossway have outdone themselves with the forthcoming ESV Study Bible. There is not a Bible like it in the market today. I have seen a copy of one book of the Bible and it is like the iPhone of Bibles. I have already ordered 16 genuine leather copies to give away to our pastors in training and am looking forward to its October 15 publication date.

 

For a limited time, you can pre-order your ESV study Bible with a special website that will give you the best discount possible (35% off) and Crossway will donate 5% back to Acts 29 for ESVSB’s bought through the weblink below. We are investing this 5% directly into our Acts 29 Foundation Fund that helps urban church planters in low-income cities to plant churches.

You can make a difference in places like Philadelphia, Oakland, South LA, and South San Diego and get the best study Bible available in an accurate, word-for-word translation. But the offer is only good through July 31, 2008. Go to our special website and order your copy of a first edition ESV Study Bible. The second printing will not be available before Christmas. This deal does not apply to any other Crossway product.

 

Thanks to our partners at Crossway who share so many of their resources with church planting and thank you for investing in urban church planting by purchasing your ESV Study Bible through our website.

Is there a coupon code? I want to make sure the 5% goes to Acts 29. Thanks.

Good question. The coupon code is embedded in the web link so just order as many as you need and the 5% will be taken care of without submitting a specific code.

I found this sentence "The second edition will not be available before Christmas" confusing. I talked to a Crossway rep this morning, and there is no "second edition" planned (that would be crazy, why sell something that you're already planning on fixing in the future?). I assume Scott meant "second printing". Anyway, I copped one. Thanks for the great deal.
