In this episode, I move to do the following: 

1. Dismantle the erroneous "KJV was written on a 5th-grade reading level" narrative

2. Briefly demonstrate a couple of other reasons why we would benefit from a newer translation of the Bible.

ALSO: Here's the link to Mark Ward's excellent book on the King James Bible -- note: same as I, he doesn't advocate for doing away with the King James Version. This helpful, read-it-in-two-hours-but-meditate-on-it-for-years kind of book will help you arrive at a balanced perspective on this topic, no matter what your position is on this issue.
