The CSNTM is an organization started by Dan Wallace that exists to preserve and digitize NT manuscripts, studying their background and transmission. As part of their service to the church, CSNTM has a series of lectures they offer to local churches in an effort to help Christians understand the textual history of the New Testament documents. This is part 7 of a 7 part series, called Text to Translation: The Story of the New Testament. This episode focuses on our English translations. What is the history of the English translation, and what kind of English translation should we use?
