Ken Taylor, Translator of The Living Bible, Dies at 88
 Last fall, Dr. Kenneth N. Taylorwrote, "When I am laid to rest in the next two or three years (or will it be weeks?), not many people will give it more than a passing thought other than to say, 'Sorry to hear it.' This is a reminder to me that we do not live for praise but to help others, so whatever needs doing must be done now."
Taylor's life did help others, in one of the most profound ways. He helped Christians to know their Bible, and for that Taylor is being remembered with more than passing thoughts. Collected below is Christianity Today's collection of articles about Taylor.
