Rod Laughlin

Rod Laughlin, founder of The Readable Bible project, became a Christian when he was 28 years old. Desiring to know more about the Bible, he earned a master of divinity degree from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He then served as pastor of two growing churches. After standing in an airport bookstore looking for a book to read and wondering why he didn’t want to read the Bible, he began developing and translating The Readable Bible. He realized that day in the store the Bible was too hard to understand. His mission for the past ten years has been to maintain the accuracy of the Scripture while presenting it in a way that makes it easy to understand and in modern formatting.
