I personally don't like the Bible 'dumbed down', but that's just my opinion.

Hey everyone thank you so much for helping me out. I feel dumb for not knowing what it was. I have to say The Purpose Driven Life is a bit more bias then a lot of books I've read, and I have to stay I prefer Eastern Thought that some of the more contemporary Christian authors.

Really? Anyone in particular (I assume you mean eastern Christian in the context)? Ancient or modern? I'm just curious really, but I might be able to point you in the direction of some others you might like (and they certainly won't dumb anything down).

Bwahahahaha

As someone who doesn't get migraines from MSG, I find this and other bible paraphrases add an interesting flavor to my spiritual dishes.... though by itself, it's simply not that edible

Modern or ancient (or somewhere in between)? A couple of more modern ones that I can certainly recommend (and their works are available in English, some online) are Fr. Dumitru Staniloae and Elder Cleopa of Sihastria. And then, of course, you just can't beat the Fathers.
