Eugene Peterson's The Message is a fresh, compelling, insightful, challenging, faith-filled translation of the Bible into contemporary idiomatic American English and is first and foremost a reader's Bible. Eugene Peterson and William Griffin (translator of the deuterocanonical books) make the Scriptures come alive again by translating them in a way that we can understand what God is trying to say to us today.
