I would recommend the Message bible. However, reading any bible is not as useful as joining a noisy charismatic church.
Read the New Testament and accept Christianity as a way of life rather than just a religion.
The rewards are enormous.
The “Message” is NOT a translation of the Bible and you should stay far away from it.
I am not going to get into it here and mess up your thread but the Message is no translation it is a paraphrase from Eugene Peterson.
