the message


I recently purchased The Message translation of the Bible.  It's got this cool fake-suede, blue cover.  So, this guy, Eugene Patterson, set out a few years ago to bring the core values of the Bible to a modern generation with a Message that transcends vernacular and lingo and slang.

My pastor from a church in South Carolina ended every sermon with a passage from Ephesians: "And I ask Him that with both feet planted firmly on love, you'll be able to take in with all followers of Jesus the extravagant dimensions of Christ's love.  Reach out and experience the breadth!  Test the length!  Plumb the depths!  Rise to the heights!  Live full lives, full in the fullness of God."
