Electronic Bibles

So this week after Bible study the group was sitting around talking about different translations/versions of the Bible. Merlin, the guy who leads the study, was explaining about the ESword program that he uses. It is an online version of the Bible with multiple translations and languages and all that stuff. Anyway, it reminded me of the trip we took to hear Kay Arthur at her conference center one spring break. It was a group of us from Colonial Heights. I think I was 9th grade so Jonathan would have been 8th grade. Anyway, it was just a week or two after Jonathan's birthday and he had gotten one of those electronic Bibles. It was maroon and he was quite proud of it. So we are in our first session with Kay and she tells us to all take out our Bibles. Well Jonathan is on the front row and he pulls out his electronic thing and Kay totally called him out. It was hilarious. She stops in the middle of her teaching and tells him to put away he game and take out his Bible and Jonathan is all trying to explain that it is a Bible, but she was really not interested in listening to him. She went on and on about bringing your Bible and not playing games and all this stuff. Jonathan was finally able to tell her that it was a Bible and she was amazed. I remember she came down off the stage to look at it!!! :)
