Text of the page (random words):
gospels bound between the end of john s gospel and the first chapter of acts panic it wasn t listed on the back cover of the box where key features were mentioned i opened the box of a leather edition hoping it would be there it was and then some they totally redefined what a harmonization of the life of christ looks like the key sections are listed using columns as is common but they add an extra column showing the location of the event or teaching and instead of simply numbering items there is approximate dating furthermore those moments in the life of jesus are noted in sections or categories see photo above the rest looks good too but that one particular feature was my personal benchmark to see if the niv application would measure up and it exceeded my expectations even if they didn t list that feature on the back of the box comments 1 april 29 2025 a carnival you well know filed under christianity tags attention span computers distraction smart phones social media technology paulthinkingoutloud 7 55 pm it wasn t my book but as i curiously flipped through the book fell onto a table partly open to these pages at that moment i knew i wanted to share this honestly it s the only the part of the book i ve read so far if the rest of the book is this good i m looking forward to getting a copy kyle idleman writes imagine going to a carnival where every attraction screams for your attention the moment you step through the gates you re assaulted by an array of sights and sounds to your left a roller coaster called the headline hurl a whirl breaking news comes at a dizzying speed with nauseating effect constant ups and downs the passengers want to get off and ride something different but they re afraid they will miss something so they stay on the roller coaster of constant news feeds straight ahead the social media carousel called the infinite scroll spins round and round in a blur of likes shares comparisons and fleeting connections it s an endless cycle of consumption that never stops spinning to your right is another ride called the streaming scream machine it s a ride that promises endless options of streaming shows and viral videos once someone hops on the ride they have been known to disappear for days then there s the haunted house of conspiracy theories called the paranoia palace where you spend hours letting your mind obsess over things that could possibly happen and get lost in a labyrinth of lies and half truths as you keep walking through the carnival grounds you come to the buy it now bumper cars it s chaotic as you drive around out of control try not to bump into the latest can t miss deal of online shopping and then there s the arcade which is actually an arcade where you can go in and play video games for hours you assume it s full of middle school boys but you re surprised when you walk in to find grown men in their thirties who haven t left the building since middle school you get the idea our minds are offered a carnival of content that offers us distractions and diversions we spend our lives and our money riding the rides losing track of time and being blinded to what really matters we ve never had more access to things that can fill our minds but it seems we ve never been last mindful all these distractions in our culture have given rise to what is sometimes called the attention economy attention is a scarce commodity business and content creators are constantly competing for our limited cognitive resources sophisticated algorithms are designed to capture our attention and keep our focus but what kind of impact does this pattern of thinking have on our minds emotions and relationships from every thought captive calm the mental chaos that keeps you stuck drains your hope and holds you back by kyle idleman zondervan pages 74 75 leave a comment april 12 2025 bible versions claiming a single author filed under christianity tags alternative bible versions bible translations bible versions new testament paulthinkingoutloud 7 53 am what about bible translations that are the product of one individual there are some rather uninformed opinions circulating online about bibles because they were the product of a single bible scholar rather than a team of christian academics i thought we d set the record straight about six of the more visible ones five of which i endorse and one about which i am not enthusiastic comparison samples are from the same passage but not the same verses it s a long story scot mcknight scot is a professor of church history and theology and writes books for scholarly discussion as well as for general wider consumption his new testament text which goes by the name the second testament is published by ivp his intended audience for the bible is serious students of scripture who know him from his other work fairly easy reading but some things jump out in the passover meal he took bread and thanking god he cracked it well it was unleavened bread right n t wright one of the world s foremost new testament authorities tom wright is beloved around the world and his new testament for everyone is actually the third edition of what was formerly the kingdom new testament published by spck in the uk and by zondervan in the united states with no canadian rights in that same communion narrative in 1 corinthians he has jesus saying this is my body it s for you eugene peterson this one is a full bible and is based on original manuscripts in both hebrew and greek brought to modern language by a man eminently qualified in both some are skittish about using the word translation to describe it but then what do you call it don t even think about using the p word if you think the message goes too far down the road of dynamic equivalence think of it as a bible commentary published by navpress again from 1 corinthians 11 i received my instructions from the master himself and passed them on to you terry wildman again a new testament the first nations version isn t intended for everyone but be aware that it has the full endorsement of both wycliffe bible translators and intervarsity press among others it was 14 years in the making and while detractors say the fusing of the scriptures with indigenous terminology is syncretism i e that they re mixing religions it s actually what missiologists call contextualization using language and idioms understood by the intended audience this cup represents the new peace treaty brought into being at the cost of my lifeblood ken taylor ken was not directly involved in the page by page crafting of the new living translation but the nlt might never have happened if it wasn t for taylor s earlier work the living bible which after being endorsed by billy graham went viral and is actually kept in print to this day if you see a reference to lb or tlb that s what they re quoting in some places it s great but in others its successor made great improvements published by naturally tyndale house publishing the business he formed for the purpose of getting the project printed taylor for every time you eat this bread and drink this cup you are retelling the message of the lord s death that he has died for you do this until he comes again brian simmons unfortunately much of the criticism of the passion translation is appropriate most notably the inability of readers to tell where the core words in verses end and the added commentary begins as a result it was removed from biblegateway com i m told there was a passage which was 37 words long in the niv that he expands to 103 words just so i m clear this is the one i m not recommending so let each individual first evaluate his own attitude and only then eat the bread and drink the cup for continually eating and drinking with a wrong spirit will bring judgment upon yourself by not recognizing the body this insensitivity is why many of you are weak chronically ill and some even dying note just because a bible was translated by a larger committee of translators doesn t make it great an example would be the new world translation used by jehovah s witnesses conversely i have no doubt that the individual authors named above shared draft copies of portions of their work with other academics i would expect that some measure of peer review took place comments 1 older posts search for travel back in time travel back in time
