"I remember how excited I was when my daughter began reading her new Bible. But then one night, as I put her to bed, she asked, 'Daddy, why is the Bible only written to boys?' My heart sank. I tried to explain to her that male pronouns are sometimes used to refer to both men and women. She was utterly perplexed by this. Nowhere in her life experience were male pronouns used to relate to everyone. I've always loved the NIV, and I am very excited about this revision that will allow the NIV to speak to an entirely new generation."
