thoughts on version of the Bible.

i think i like the NIV. i've been hearing it a lot lately in church, and hearing it in youth group Bible studies too. and i think i like it. sometimes it has words that i like better or i can identify with easier. and other times it has way better sentence construction!

The TNIV is pretty good too. It makes things more "equal" (he and she/they vs he) but their language is really good.

I think I like NIV best.

Like, the word "apportioned"? :D

That sounded really bad. By equal I was being sarcastic. Just an explanation.
