The Word of Promise: Next Generation

The Word of Promise: Next Generation New Testament Dramatic Audio Bible
Thomas Nelson
2008
Bible

Sometimes our tweeners and teenagers don’t want to take the time to read through the Bible, so Thomas Nelson has come up with a new project, the Bible on three MP3 CDs, which includes over 23 hours of the New Testament reading. There is also a guide, so your teen (or you) could listen to the entire New Testament in 40 days.

The Bible is read by an all-star cast, including Sean Astin as the Narrator, Cody Linley as Jesus. Some of the other readers are: Corbin Bleu, Andrew Lawrence, Martin Jarvis, Jordin Sparks, Emily Osment, and several others. Introductions are read by Max Lucado and Jenna Lucado.

A promotional DVD is also included, giving the behind the scenes look at the making of The Word of Promise: Next Generation. It also introduces you to the cast and gives brief insights into their lives.

The New Testament is read with some sound effects, including soft music, wailing, crowd noises, etc. Also, as people speak, a different reader takes each character. For instance, Marshall Allman is the voice of Paul. Emily Osment is the voice of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Annasophia Robb is the voice of Mary Mardalene.

Young people, as well as those who don’t care much for the poetic-ness of the King James Version, will love this new version of the Bible, and the ease in listening to it. All you need is an MP3 CD player and you can listen to the Bible anytime you want. In the car. On walks. At work. As you shop. You won’t want to miss this. $34.99. Three MP3 CDs and one DVD.
