[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_wp_text text=”Creating a cobblestone translation of the Bible is a devotional practice that entails reading every English translation of scripture and then carefully selecting each verse that best resonates with the reader before compiling them together. I don’t recommend reading a cobblestone translation in place of an authorized version (for many reasons, most of which are fairly academic), but I do recommend making one. They’re fun, and by the end of the process you’ll know the biblical material backwards and forwards…and in a new way.
Here is my cobblestone translation of Ecclesiastes, which I prepared several years ago in my work at Westwinds Church.”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
