Dan Parr shares his unlikely four-year journey of creating the EUR Bible (Easy to Understand and Read), which began with a simple Facebook post of a reworded resurrection story and evolved into a complete translation of all 66 books.
• Initially reluctant about creating "another version" of the Bible
• Started with the book of Luke, then felt divinely prompted to continue with Acts, Romans, and eventually the entire Bible
• Used public domain translations as foundation, simplifying language while preserving meaning
• Addressed concerns about Bible translations and denominational divisions
• Emphasized how God works through ordinary, unqualified people
• Available on Amazon and Audible as individual books, compilations, and a Bible-in-a-year format
• Currently working on 365 devotionals specifically designed for Generation Z readers
