One of the sections of the Encountering God Study Bible that I like is the Study Help section that comes after Revelation. There is a Biblical Timeline of the biblical narrative for a better understanding of how historical and biblical events fit throughout history, a chart of the harmony of the Gospels which details the life and ministry of Jesus in chronological order showing where each event and teaching occur in the Gospel, reading plans guiding you through the entire Bible in a year, a chart of the prophecies fulfilled by Jesus as Messiah provides Old Testament prophecies and where they have been fulfilled in the New Testaments (my personal favorite!), and an index to easily find word studies, character studies, historical encounters, apologetic, and aesthetic articles.
The Encountering God Study Bible is in the easy-to-understand New King James Version (NKJV) in an easy-to-read print and is a great for gift giving for a believer in any stage of their walk with Christ. It, also, has 2 different colored ribbon bookmarks. There is a presentation page inside the front cover to personalize for the recipient.
