A great perspective on Bible translations. I prefer ESV for personal study, but I highly recommend CSB for those with kids (a faithful and easy read for them).

Thank you! ESV is my primary as well. It’s a great formal translation. Great tip on the CSB for kids.

I was encouraged to use CSB for kids because it is still very faithful to the text while making it accessible to all readers (8th grade reading level). I have grown to love it as well.

Justin, Thank You! In all you do, keep on pointing followers and non-believers to the Word, brother! Your perspectives will give followers of Christ the conversational tools and context to help people young and old, not only hear the Word, but to ultimately live the Word.

Ooh, I just watched a Wes Huff video responding to this very objection. The text of the Scriptures have been preserved through independent transmission and translations that significant drifts in message could be caught and corrected quite early by cross-referencing. If one compares different language translation that came from separate translation "genealogy" you can find that there's no significant difference in the message.
