It's helpful to use different interpretations of the Bible to
get a richer flavor for what is being said.
Please note that I do not have any financial relationship with the
authors or publishers. I've never even met any of them, though
I'd like to. And this is not by any means an all inclusive list.
There are many, many other fine writers and artists that God uses powerfully.
God Bless you and your families,
Mike Andrews
