Taylor moved back to Wheaton, began working at the magazine, and finished his theological degree at Northern Baptist Seminary.

[3] Taylor worked briefly with Clyde Dennis, founder of Good News Publishers, on translating Gospel tracts and distributing them overseas.

[4] They were eventually published by Moody Press in a book called The Bible in Pictures for Little Eyes in 1962.

After these books were published Taylor began working on an ambitious project—the Bible in a paraphrased and easy-to-read modern language.

His Bible paraphrase was successful enough to allow him to leave Moody Press and work exclusively at Tyndale.

[4] A special edition of Taylor's Living Bible was published in 1984 in conjunction with a marketing campaign sponsored by the Christian Broadcasting Network.
