YouVersion

This is a free app that has a large choice of translations of the Bible, some of which have audio versions.

The Lockman Foundation

The Lockman Foundation produces two of the most accurate translations of the Bible available. I considered them to be the best translations available today: The New American Standard Bible [NASB] and the Amplified Bible [AMP].

World English Bible

This is free translation of the Bible. I haven't spent much time with it, so I can't speak to how it compares to other translations. (I do find their attitude to capitalization based on it's lack in the original texts curious as they do use chapter and verse delineations when original texts don't have those either. But it's not important.) I list it here because it is the only actual translation that is in the Public Domain. You can freely use any or all of this version.

The CrossWire Bible Society

This is a great source for free Bible software, translations, references and study aids. There are versions for Mac, Windows, Linux, Mobile and web browsers.

Bible Gateway

This site and app has the Bible in more than 200 versions and more than 70 languages, including some audio versions. Bible Gateway became a division of Zondervan, and is now a member of HarperCollins Christian Publishing. Because of this they have access to a lot of commercial translations. This website is free.

Accordance Bible Software

If you want professional Bible study software, Accordance is an excellent choice with a great interface and powerful features. They have an incredible library of modules you can add on to expand your library, often for less than the hard copy editions. They have frequent sales and specials, as well as have student and pastor discounts. And there is a free version you can try to see if you like the interface. This is my personal choice and I've been using it for over three decades.

Logos Bible Software

If you want professional Bible study software, Logos is another excellent choice with powerful features. They have an large library of modules you can add on to expand your library, often for less than the hard copy editions. And there is a free version you can try to see if you like the interface. This was the platform my seminary had a special deal for. And many scholars and pastors I highly respect use it very effectively.

Celebration Church

This is a multi-site church based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It is an independent church, which is to say it is not affiliated with an national or regional church denomination. The Head Pastor is Mark Gungor. There are many things I admire about this church. My favorite thing is how they don't hide from the truth. Sermons are Bible based and bluntly honest and truthful. They try to be as accurate with the message of the Bible as possible. While most churches water down, change or skip over parts of the Bible if they think someone might be offended, this church doesn't do that. If I had a Star Trek transporter I would attend this Church at least twice a week.

Celebration Church Audio Podcast. Sermons from the Sunday and Wednesday services are available for free from iTunes.

Laugh Your Way To A Better Marriage / Mark Gungor.com

Laugh Your Way To A Better Marriage is the number one marriage seminar in the world. It's "the marriage seminar for people who hate marriage seminars." I highly recommend you attend one of these seminars, get the DVD, or read the book. I wish I could have attended one of these decades ago. I know I wouldn't have made as many mistakes. And I definitely would have had a better outlook and attitude.

Anjelah Johnson

One of my favorite comedians. Anjelah Johnson is best known for her viral video "Nail Salon" on YouTube. She was on the cast of MadTV, which lead to her character "Bon Qui Qui". And as of this writing, she has recorded three comedy specials, all available on Netflix. I love her comedy and spot on impressions. She's definitely in my all-time top ten. And it's so nice to have a comedian who doesn't feel the need to use foul language to get a laugh.
