Description: The Message is not a true Bible translation, nor even a paraphrase. When you compare The Message to formal and dynamic Bible translations, Eugene Peterson’s book falls short. And no wonder, as The Message was hurriedly created by one man instead of the theological committees which faithfully translate biblical manuscripts from the original Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic languages. Dave Jenkins of Servants of Grace ministry, shows that The Message often teaches differently than God’s Word, and so should be marked and avoided. Dave Jenkins is happily married to Sarah Jenkins. He is a writer, editor, and speaker living in beautiful Southern Oregon. Dave is a lover of Christ, His people, the Church, and sound theology. He serves as the Executive Director of Servants of Grace Ministries, the Executive Editor of Theology for Life Magazine and is the Host for the Equipping You in Grace Podcast. He is the author of The Word Explored (House to House, 2021).. Dave loves to spend time with his wife, going to movies, eating at a nice restaurant, or going out for a round of golf with a good friend. He is also a voracious reader, in particular of Reformed theology, and the Puritans. You will often find him when he’s not busy with ministry reading a pile of the latest books from a wide variety of Christian publishers. Dave received his M.A.R. and M.Div through Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary.
