sentence structures that I readily understand in my culture and life today. I am excited for our children and grandchildren to have 'The Living Water New Testament' available to them".
Dr. Christian Overman, Director of Worldview Matters raves "The skills Roy honed as a Wycliffe Bible Translator have been put to good use in fulfilling his own longing for a more readable English translation.
