Hey Fellow Dads,
This year marks the 500th anniversary since William Tyndale began publishing the first edition of his translation of the New Testament into English. Why should we celebrate William Tyndale and his 1525 English New Testament? In this episode, I want to pass along seven reasons we should become familiar with Tyndale, emulate his character, and appreciate his translation of the New Testament.
—Nathan
