Art, photos, and other creative forms of self-expression from youth are packed into this Bible as a launching point to drive teens into the Bible. Teens will see how God works in the lives of other teens and be encouraged to express their faith, too.

This youth Bible takes "interactive" to an entirely new level. Teenagers who use the "Live Bible" will find:

- Student art, student poems, an interactive tie-in Web site, sidebars that spark teen creativity, "Try This" features that encourage teens to live out their faith, and quotes and profiles of famous people of faith.
- Creative space to express their thoughts, feelings, or questions by writing right on the pages, doodling, pasting pictures, and more
- An invitation to join the community online. Teens are encouraged to visit the Web site revealed inside and post their art, writing, and insights into how God is working in their lives.
