Learn more about the English Standard Version from Kevin DeYoung, senior pastor at University Reformed Church in East Lansing, Michigan. DeYoung outlines seven reasons why he prefers the ESV over other translations for personal study and devotions, worship services and educational ministries.  Comparing it mainly to the NIV, he discusses the "essentially literal" translation of the ESV, it's  transparency, more consistent key word choices throughout a passage or book, over-translation and under-translation, and more. 31 page booklet, 5" x 7"

DeYoung shares seven reasons why his congregation switched Bible translations to the English Standard Version. An excellent tool for pastors or lay leaders seeking to learn more about the ESV.

KEVIN DEYOUNG (MDiv, Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary) is senior pastor at University Reformed Church in East Lansing, Michigan. He is the author of a number of books, including Why We Love the Church and Just Do Something, as well as the editor of Don’t Call It a Comeback.
