Matthew W. Kingsbury has been a minister of Word and sacrament in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church since 1999. At present, he teaches 5th-grade English Language Arts at a charter school in Cincinnati, Ohio. He longs for the recovery of confessional and liturgical presbyterianism, the reunification of the Protestant Church, the restoration of the American Republic, and the salvation of the English language from the barbarian hordes.

Once again, unable to entertain the possibility of an upside
On the one hand, I'm glad to hear Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society) plans to let Today's New International Version quietly slip into oblivion. On the other, I can't help but suspect its concomitant decision to revise the New International Version means the TNIV's crimes against established translation practice and English grammar will continue to be perpetuated under a different label.
