The end result is a fresh,straightforward, and strong translation of God's truth--one you can connect with in your daily life. You'll find it easier to experience God's Word as it truly is--absolutely clear.

God never intended the Bible to be too difficult for his people. To make sure God's message was clear, the authors of the Bible recorded God's word in familiar everyday language. Their Bible books brought a message that the original readers could understand, and those first readers knew that God spoke through these writings. Down through the centuries, many people wanted a Bible so badly that they copied different Bible books by hand!Today, now that the Bible is readily available,many Christians do not regularly read it, feeling that the Bible is too hard to comprehend or that it is irrelevant to life. But the New Century Version captures the clear and simple message understood by the very first readers. This version presents the Bible as God intended it:clear and dynamic!The New Century Version is one of the easiest translations of the Bible for modern-day readers.It accurately communicates the messages found in the original languages of biblical manuscripts, using the kind of terms you use every day. It employs contemporary phrases,word pictures, and expressions, and replaces vague and overly religious language with downto-earth vocabulary. The end result is a fresh,straightforward, and strong translation of God's truth--one you can connect with in your daily life. You'll find it easier to experience God's Word as it truly is--absolutely clear, powerfully alive, and completely life-changing.
