And for those who don't speak 1611, here's the NLT:

Psalm 94

1O LORD, the God of vengeance,

O God of vengeance, let your glorious justice shine forth!

2Arise, O Judge of the earth.

Give the proud what they deserve.

3How long, O LORD?

How long will the wicked be allowed to gloat?

4How long will they speak with arrogance?

How long will these evil people boast?

5They crush your people, LORD,

hurting those you claim as your own.

6They kill widows and foreigners

and murder orphans.

7“The LORD isn’t looking,” they say,

“and besides, the God of Israela doesn’t care.”

8Think again, you fools!

When will you finally catch on?

9Is he deaf—the one who made your ears?

Is he blind—the one who formed your eyes?

10He punishes the nations—won’t he also punish you?

He knows everything—doesn’t he also know what you are doing?

11The LORD knows people’s thoughts;

he knows they are worthless!

12Joyful are those you discipline, LORD,

those you teach with your instructions.

13You give them relief from troubled times

until a pit is dug to capture the wicked.

14The LORD will not reject his people;

he will not abandon his special possession.

15Judgment will again be founded on justice,

and those with virtuous hearts will pursue it.

16Who will protect me from the wicked?

Who will stand up for me against evildoers?

17Unless the LORD had helped me,

I would soon have settled in the silence of the grave.

18I cried out, “I am slipping!”

but your unfailing love, O LORD, supported me.

19When doubts filled my mind,

your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.

20Can unjust leaders claim that God is on their side—

leaders whose decrees permit injustice?

21They gang up against the righteous

and condemn the innocent to death.

22But the LORD is my fortress;

my God is the mighty rock where I hide.

23God will turn the sins of evil people back on them.

He will destroy them for their sins.

The LORD our God will destroy them.

Lumberyard is their game engine. It's probably just a little easter egg for the gamers.

The trailer for Season 1.

The Chosen is the best Christian programming I've ever watched.

edit: It's also free.

I'd suggest the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John), the book of James, Acts as good starting points.

Pick a version that makes sense to you. I like CSB, NLT, NET -- all fairly easy reading. Some might say King James only, but don't start learning to swim in the deep end. The point is to understand what you are reading, and old English is an extra hurdle. You can always dig into the KJV when you are ready for deeper study.

I always wondered how they got such good footage; some of it was obviously not just some guy with a phone. You could even see the camera crew in some of them. And how did they get the footage out of a country like China? Media is state controlled.

Just be aware that there's only one way to heaven. And it's not just being a good person. ... John 14:6 - Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

I don't know if Q is true. They have certainly seemed like truth at times, and manipulation at other times. But I don't put my trust in them, just God. That's what keeps me from fear.
