Vocal Performance by Max McLean

De: Max McLean

Narrado por: Max McLean

Verses you have read many times will impact you in a new way when you hear them read aloud

Read in a single voice with subtle background music, the NIV Listener’s Audio Bible features Max McLean’s skillful, engaging, but never over-dramatized style reading the entire text of the Bible. This audio Bible will bring God’s Word to life during your personal and family devotion times, group Bible study, or during your weekday commute. Listen to just 13 minutes a day and you’ll get through the entire Bible in a year!

Before you could tuck it under your arm, before you could bring it up on your phone–you did not read Scripture, you listened to it. For centuries, the only way to access God’s Word was to hear it read aloud in public gatherings. Today, we are blessed to own personal printed copies of the Bible, but there is a surprising benefit to hearing the Scriptures read aloud as it was for so many generations.

New: Now includes an interactive table of contents with books and chapters of the Bible for easy audio navigation!*

Features:

• Complete text of the accurate and clear New International Version (NIV).
• Narration by Max McLean, Founder and Artistic Director for the Fellowship of Performing Arts in New York City.

"These are the most engaging recordings of the Bible I have ever heard.”

- Hank Hanegraaff, The Bible Answer Man & President, Christian Research Institute

"He sounds as you might expect the writers of the text to sound if they were speaking instead of writing... McLean reads the Bible like it is the Word of God."

- Donald Whitney, Professor of Biblical Spirituality, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

McLean has a beautiful voice and it is a pleasure

Any additional comments?

I really wish they had BOOK, Chapter and verse! It's time consuming to search through hundreds of chapters (that's all you get) to find even a book!

Good buy

This is skillfully done and I’m glad I purchased it. They fixed the chapter problem and separated the books. The narrator is excellent.

It's all in the reading....

Proper tone and intonation go along wwy in gaining an understanding of scripture. Max McLean does it masterfully. I Love it!

I love how it is read and performed

This reading makes my ability to be in the word of the lord more pleasant and attainable. with five children to tend to I sometimes don't have time to sit and read from the great book. it is read with such personality and power I feel like I'm listening to a reading of my favorite novel and characters. I can definitely get through the entire bible with this. 10/10 easy listening and understanding.

But…

Easy to listen to. Easy to follow. Great job/performance by Max.
But…
If I were to tell you to listen to Isaiah 46, you couldn’t EASILY find it. Part 16, part 4, part 10…where is it? Once you’re in the right part, though, everything works and flows wonderfully - each book and chapter is listed. The problem is you just don’t know what’s in each part.

Well done

The narrator does a great job with the reading and the ambient music in the background is a nice touch. The Chapters are annotated by book and chapter; there must have been an update because some of the reviews complain about a lack of This.

"Let those who have an ear, Let him hear"

As a seasoned Believer, it's another mode of studying the Bible. Inspiring! I also respect Max McC as a respected dramatist. Thanks to everyone submitting the Reading of God's Word in another form.

I love this narrator

Max McLean does an amazing job on this audio version of the NIV Bible. I have listened to several other audio versions and I just love his voice reading the Holy Scriptures to me!

Very good

I can listen all around my place & repeat the same section over and over. It’s a very positive.

Morning Wake-Up

We wake up and ask Alexa to read a certain chapter in the Bible App and she does! Max McLean's voice is marvelous and of course the Word of God is WISDOM!
