About this audiobook

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

Ratings and reviews

I would advise to NOT buy this book. Its sad for me to say this because the book is so well read. The problem is there is no labeling of the chapters. The Old Testament version has the labeling, so it is possible. Its a very poor product if you want to jump to a book or, say John 3:16. Don't reward this lazy cash grab.

Absolutely love the book it self but I can't use it because for unimaginable reason, it doesn't have a book of contents! Totally unacceptable. This is a very sad & disappointing thing.

Very easy to listen to. The clarity is amazing. However, the books are numerically listed. It would get a five star rating, if the chapters were listed.
