It could probably be described as Reformed leaning broad evangelical if that makes any sense. You can certainly do worse than the NIV (or NASB or KJV Study Bible which are based on the NIV Study Bible) but there are better Reformed options.

Beware of a religion without holdfasts. But if I get a grip upon a doctrine they call me a bigot. Let them do so. Bigotry is a hateful thing, and yet that which is now abused as bigotry is a great virtue, and greatly needed in these frivolous times. I have been inclined lately to start a new denomination, and call it "the Church of the Bigoted." Spurgeon
