NLT Break Though to Clarity Bible Contest and Giveaway

A few months ago, I discovered the New Living Translation and fell in love with it. Striving for dynamic equivalence and the goal of accurately capturing the meaning of the Biblical text, the NLT translators used a thought-for-thought translating system while staying true to the literal word-for-word translation. The result is a translation that makes sense to modern times, is in modern language, yet is completely accurate and faithful to the original text. 


Now the NLT is hosting a huge contest to win one of their Life Application Study Bibles (and just maybe an Apple iPad or iPod Touch!)
