A study Bible on the New King James Version, first published by Thomas Nelson in 1991 with Jack Hayford as general (later executive) editor, and revised as the New Spirit-Filled Life Bible (now in a third, full-colour edition), with KJV, NLT and NIV editions and a Spanish edition, Biblia Plenitud. Its publisher describes it as unfolding the broad range of Pentecostal and charismatic teaching rather than one denomination's. Its features include "Kingdom Dynamics" articles by Spirit-filled preachers and teachers, "Word Wealth" word studies of key Hebrew and Greek terms, "Truth-in-Action" charts of practical application for each book, guided prayers on key passages, book introductions and outlines, and verse-by-verse notes. It had sold over two million copies, and a family of study guides, commentaries and handbooks grew from it.
