I like the name "not KJV" for the NKJV. I've heard the NIV called the "Nearly Inspired Version." The more I study the changes from the KJV I'm tempted to think of it as the "Never Inspired Version" or the "Newly Invented Version."
Concerning the pastors you mentioned, I think it is fairly natural for a person to be good at either truth or love but extremely difficult, requiring much "sanctification," for a person to be able to speak the truth in love with equal emphasis on both truth and love.
