I blogged over at Christianity Today on the importance of reading your Bible.
What do Bible teachers do for fun on a Friday night? They check the Amazon lists to see which Bible translation holds the top spot.
The last time I looked, it was the New International Version (NIV). The NIV has been the best-selling translation in the US for decades, but on Amazon’s rankings, the translation sat at No. 5, beat out by two children’s Bibles, an audio Bible, and at No. 1, a popular devotional guide that somehow made its way into the Bible category.
