Reading this with my wife. Great dinner table discussion material from a systematic study POV.

This translation is really starting to grow on me. To the point that I purchased my wife her own custom-bound copy (of which she's doing her Bible reading through this year). From a readability standpoint, it feels like if someone were to link the NIV and ESV together, while glancing a bit at history (every now and then something a bit KJV[lineage]-esque comes up and it makes me smile).

I think this translation fits somewhere in the mix of the CSB, NIV, and ESV-it reads a bit easier than the ESV, while staying a bit more "true" than I find the NIV to be. I've found so much tooling for it for free as well (it's free in Logos, an interlinear is free in e-Sword, and it's free to use in general which I appreciate). I shall continue on! :)

This is "my wife's favorite book", and I've never read it so...here we go...

...also a reference for the small group. Note: I received this during my attendance at the 2024 PCA General Assembly, directly from Serge International.

Going through this one with the small group I'm involved with...

The idea of an open-source translation of the Bible intrigues me, so I bought a nice copy (it even has my name on the cover!) from ChristianBooks and have been using it as my default basically since I got it earlier this year. Reads a bit easier than the ESV, a bit "rougher" than something like the NLT. I...like it.

Reading it again for...reasons...😉😅
