The very first study Bible I received at 12 years old was the Thompson Chain Reference Bible. I had a small Bible I had received from my parents when I was a young boy had taken me through; however, now that I had experienced the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and the humbling call to peach, my pastor felt I needed something that would help me tie the scriptures together. It wasn't until I was age 17 and had left Tulsa to move to LA to go to a Bible College, only to find out that Frank Charles Thompson had actually attended college at LIFE Bible College in LA. (Now it is called: Life Pacific University in San Dimas, CA.) Now in my physical library have this Bible in several translations. I have found that to bring actual Biblical teaching & preaching, preaching the full counselor, for the people of God, the key is to follow the threads through the Bible from beginning to end. After studying, you may not need to open every passage in one message, but at least be mindful of all that God may help as you relax and sincerely teach the Word of God. May the Lord bless everyone with this tool to know and experience the whole counsel of God's word. To now have this resource in digital format is very valuable to me & it will also be to you.
