Minor suggestion

It would be very helpful to label the chapters. 17 parts with up to 90 odd chapters in each. None are labeled so finding a passage is virtually impossible. Similarly starting at a point, or trying to listen to a particular gospel is virtually impossible. It is possible for Nelson Inc. to label and would suggest that this be done.

A wonderful reading; dramatic yet respectful.

Brought the Word to life

What a wonderful experience to hear the Bible dramatized. Hearing it in this manner opens more understanding.

Great way to experience the Bible for the 1st time

Reading the Bible cover-to-cover has been on my "to-do" list for decades. I just never could get the head of steam to to do it. A month after joining audible, I decided there were no more excuses. If I can't give this effort one measly credit, it will never happen. So I did. I already listen to tons of books on audio as my job has me on many flights and many long drives. So why not listen to something meaningful? The production value is stunning and I recommend getting it at the highest quality download. I put it in my Bose Sound dock at home and it fills the room. There are so many subtle yet fulfilling background sounds that really make the subject pop. It would be a shame for you not to enjoy them fully.

I do agree with some reviewers who would prefer the parts and chapters be labeled to find specific books of the bible. 17 parts with 80-90 chapters is hard to navigate if you are looking for something specific. The only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars.

Awesome performance.

I was most moved by the faith of the Hollywood stars who read the Scriptures. in a time of chaos in the world, when darkness abounds, these fine actors brought me a greater depth of understanding in the Bible. Their own love for Our Lord poured through, uplifting me. Thank you all for the treasure you have given us. May God reward you ten fold.
