Listener's Audio Bible—New International Version, NIV: New Testament

Vocal Performance by Max McLean

De: Zondervan

Narrado por: Max McLean

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

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 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.

Read in a single voice with subtle background music, the NIV Listener’s Audio Bible, New Testament features Max McLean’s skillful, engaging, but never over-dramatized style. 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 6 minutes a day and you’ll get through the New Testament twice in a year!

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

Features:

• New Testament 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

Clarity and voices

Lived the way they told the story and the lovely background music that accompanied them

Well performed

The readers voice compliments the Bible beautifully and inspires a soothing and comfortable experience. Pleased

The instructions for life

Everything you need to know about living life Gods way. God is an awesome God!!!

Amazing!

I could listen to this a thousand times. The narrator has the most incredible soothing voice. The Bible is always my favorite read.

Why did the books turn into chapters?

One day you’re listening to the gospel of mark, the next it’s chapter 1. Why? No clue. NIV, please fix this. Do better. This is annoying. But. The performance is great. Minor details or slight changes in phrases are a little weird. Like “fishers of men” changed to “fishers of people” or something gender neutral is absurd. You know what? Stick to the KJV.

Faith comes from hearing the word

A must for every Christian.....really amazing to experience the Bible this way.
Love listening during morning walks watching the sun come up.

Narration 3; Text 5.

I held on through Galations and Ephesians at which point I had heard enough of Mr. McLean's voice. I found it grating -- which doesn't mean anyone else will feel the same way. But for me, Paul sounded "cranky" as read by Mr. McLean. Doubtless he had reason to be at times. Just not throughout every epistle.

Happy

Awesome!!!!! I really enjoyed listening to this. I actually listen while I follow along in my Bible. Such a great purchase!

Best reader

Max McLean's voice enabled me to listen to the bible chapters clearer and I enjoyed every chapter and verse.

Great Vocals!

I was worried about finding an audio bible that would be an easy listen and still understand the content. After sampling multiple choices, this one was easy to listen to and has great vocals.
