For those who find it impossible to understand

What did you love best about The Word of Promise Complete Audio Bible: NKJV?

The theatrics, the emotions instead of just someone reading words, it was like I was back there. I was able to understand the words of the bible, for the first time in my life I gave up reading the bible, and always wanted to get closer to god through the word

What did you like best about this story?

ITs the Bible being acted out with emotion, music, simply amazing

What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

understnding

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I am still in the old estament, and but now I enjoy and look forward to "reading"/ listening to the bible.

Any additional comments?

If youre someone who doesnt read the bible because you dont understand it, or you try and try but give up because it doesnt make sense then this book is for you. If you want to get a closer relationship with god that reading the bible can bring, then this book is for you. If you have poor eyesight and cant follow the storyline of books then this book is for you.

Simply amazing

What did you love best about The Word of Promise Complete Audio Bible: NKJV?

That it was actually a performance of the Bible and not just a bland reading. The voices, music, and sound effects made for an amazing experience.

Who was your favorite character and why?

For some reason, the voice of the main angel really caught my attention. A very soothing and calm tone that was just engrossing. And it goes without saying. God and Jesus were outstanding.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

Something about a British accent that keeps your attention. His narration was brilliant and flawless.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

While it would have been nice to, it's too long and thought-provoking to consume in one sitting.

Wonderful Reading and Production

Amazing performance that really draws you in. I actually cannot believe how much better this is than the audio bible you get in the 'Holy Bible, YouVersion' app. Well worth a credit, or a purchase, without a doubt. P.S. Jon Voight is a playa from the Himalayas! He is that hitter-no-quitter. Overall, from everything I've heard, this is such a wonderful blessing of a tool to use at work or in the car or on a walk or so forth.
