Eugene H. Peterson: The Message (Remix)

The Message//REMIX features expanded introductions to each book of the Bible that explain the purpose of the book, who wrote it, and for whom it was written. The introductions help set the stage for the book and help you understand each book's unique message.

I LOVE this translation!  It is easy to understand, follow and very clear.  I would recommend this version to new believers and followers of Jesus who have been walking with Him for years.
