    What is your favorite Bible translation?

    I clicked ESV in the poll as that is the version I currently use most. I also like the NIV (1984) as that is what I used prior to the 2011 change of the NIV. (fortunately, I still have a few hard copies) Sometimes I enjoy listening to an audio version of the New Testament produced by Colin...

    On the verge of giving up

    There are many good replies in this thread... I have struggled with doubt at times (and I've been a Christian for years). I recently came across a really good video on youtube called "Is God Ignoring Me? Making Sense of God's Silence - Dr. Gary Habermas" He deals with this specific issue...
