“The Truth & Life Dramatized audio Bible is entirely faithful to the text of the Holy Scriptures. The manner in which the text is performed, beautifully assists the listener in understanding the meaning of the divinely inspired words within their context. The background music and sound effects helps the listener to imagine the setting of each particular text of the Holy Bible. I am happy to give my wholehearted endorsement to the audio New Testament.”
--Cardinal Raymond L. Burke,
Perfect of the Apostolic Signature of the Holy See
“This is the way Scripture is supposed to sound. Revealing and passionate performances from world class actors, a lyrical translation, and sound effects that put you in the middle of the action. Whether you’ve read the Bible a hundred times or are making the first contact, this is an experience you will not forget and one you will want to repeat often.”
--Laura Ingraham,
Radio Talk Show Host, New York Times Bestselling Author
“We learn by hearing as well as reading. Those who desire to become true disciples of Jesus will want to learn from His words in every way. For anyone interested in beginning or continuing their adventure of faith, I highly recommend this faithful and powerful presentation of the Word of God.”

Fantastic

Very thankful to have found this app. I’m recommending it to those in my bible study. I’m enjoying this app much more than the other good free options available. Well worth the money.
High quality audio

Amazing Bible app, well worth the $20. I think I’ve been using it four years with no real issues. The sound effects and audio are extremely clear, professional and capture your attention. I enjoy using the timer to fall asleep listening to the Bible. Lots of extras included too. I would love a link to Catechism of the Catholic Church!
Excellent idea

Started as a good thing and than GREED. It's a shame. I'll delete and check back later. ( $ 19.99 ??? )
Worth the money!

High production quality, and I love that there are a variety of actors/voices. Hope the Old Testament is in the works!
Don't hesitate, buy!

This is a beautiful rendition of the Bible. What a perfect match between mobile technology and this Bible to hear God's word anytime, anywhere. The app is well designed and easy to navigate. I wondered why anyone would give this less than five stars. Someone said $19.99 is too much? Crazy! This is a high-quality edition with professional recording and paid actors. If we want good work to be produced and to change the culture through good media, we must support it. In days past, patrons supported great works of art and we benefit. This is a great work, and it is a privilege to support it. When the Old Testament is available, I will happily purchase that, too.
Too expensive!!!!

Bible.is is way cheaper and you get several versions! The Actors may not be Celebrities but Just as Good!!!! Plus they have OT and NT!
Great Bible!

The voice acting is incredible! the sound effects make you feel that you are in the scene. These recording are great for lectio divina or when doing Ignatian meditations and/or contemplations. The text used is the RSV-CE which is a much more literal translation than most Catholics in the USA are used to. I love this and look forward to the release of the Old Testament.
Bumpy start

Had to load the new update then shut off my phone, then restart and it worked great!!! This is an awesome app and has TONS of stuff to chose from! I have purchased the study Bible and the audio… I wish they had the OT audio or at least gave us an indication that they are working on it and a completion date.
