While I have waited for any NIV 2011 hard copies to come available, I usually swing by my favorite stand-by: Barnes and Noble. Today I was near the store, so I looked through their supply of Bible just to see if they might be stocking the NIV update yet. I had called CBD and they were still looking at March 20. Our local Christian bookstore conglomerate was saying two months.

Barnes and Noble came through for me once again. I picked up a thinline copy of the brand new NIV. Nothing fancy, just something to have and get into.

So, at last, the update is eeking its way into our world!
