What People Are Saying about God's Word Translation

"An easy-to-understand Bible. . . . It is a wonderful version."--Rev. Billy Graham

"A remarkably fresh, accurate, and readable translation that communicates well the original text for modern readers. An outstanding achievement."--Dr. David Dockery

"The Bible is the means God has chosen to reach out in human language, reveal the essence of his relational heart, and relate the Good News of his redemptive plan. God's Word Translation presents that message in a way that makes sense to readers of all ages."--Josh McDowell

"Even if the rather prolific output of modern translations, paraphrases, and versions of Scripture should increase, this particular linguistic achievement, God's Word, will rank among the top contenders with the Bible-reading public."--Dr. D. James Kennedy

"God's Word is very possibly the most accurate English translation of the original text available today. A must-read for twenty-first century Christians."--Dr. Larry Richards|Ann Spangler is an award-winning writer whose fascination with the Bible has resulted in books that have opened the Bible to a wide range of readers.
