Brand-New Religion · Paperback · Non-fiction · 208 page Why can't somebody translate the Bible so a person like me can understand it? The frustrated words of a twenty-three-year-old man echoed his boyhood thoughts toward the King James Version of the Bible. Ken Taylor, college graduate and even a Bible teacher himself, struggled to discern the true meaning of the scripture. Later, as a father, Ken longed to help his growing family understand the Bible, too-and the seeds of a worldwide ministry were planted. Carefully paraphrasing the King James Version verse by verse, Ken created what became known as The Living Bible-and started a company called Tyndale House Publishers. For a half-century, until his death in 2005, Ken Taylor oversaw the writing, printing, and distribution of millions of pieces of literature that turned his early dreams into reality-helping people understand the Bible.
