Those familiar with any part of the Bible will recognize John 3:16, with a mind-altering difference. The words are fresh, new, and sound like the 21st century. That's because they are from The Message, a presentation of the Word of God crafted for a modern age. Eugene Peterson, translator and editor, learned from his years of teaching and pastoring that most people, through familiarity or frustration with the Bible, were missing the whole message of Scripture: the Word that God uses to create and save us, heal and bless us, judge and rule over us. So he set out to give us that word in language we use every day, a reading Bible that would enable the Word to penetrate our hearts and minds, transforming us day by day into the person God desires us to be.

Where does The Message rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The Message ranks high out of all the audiobooks I have listened to. Very easy to listen to.What other book might you compare The Message to and why?
The Everyday Bible was very monotone and hard to listen too. Fast talking and I did not like the voice. This was an audio on my regular Kindel. Same with all the audio books on the old kindels.Which character – as performed by Kelly Ryan Dolan and Carol Nix – was your favorite?
Jesus and MosesWas there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
