Joel and Victoria Osteen, the co-pastors of US megachurch Lakewood, are hoping their new Bible gives believers fresh inspiration for each new day.

Hope for Today Bible is being published to coincide with Lakewood’s 50th anniversary. The church was founded by Joel Osteen’s late father, John, and welcomes around 40,000 Christians to its services each week, making it the largest in the US.

The Hope for Today Bible is a New Living Translation that features introductions, Hope for Today messages, ‘HopePoints’, topical scriptures and reading plans to help guide both new and experienced readers of the Bible apply God’s Word to their daily lives.

Joel and Victoria Osteen have gained an international following with their weekly televised broadcasts, worship albums and books.

Joel’s last book, “Become a Better You”, became his second New York Times bestseller, debuting at No 1 and staying on the list for 29 weeks.
