has run one of the best Christian websites for years now; his site is filled with fine resources and challenging thoughts. I visit it often.He recently posted a rather scathing review of the Common English Bible, a 2011 translation published by Abingdon Press, the publishing arm of The United Methodist Church. I always appreciate Ken's insights and opinions on Bible translations, a field he takes very seriously as both a pastor and a scholar. His language in opposition to the CEB is strong and invites serious reflection. I confess that I have not been particularly comfortable with the CEB, and don't use it often; perhaps Ken has narrowed the rationale for some of my discomfort.
I also encourage folks to peruse Ken's reviews of other English Bible translations, which are excellent summaries.
