 Absolutely Amazing November 11, 2008
PJ (London UK)
In April 2008 I heard daily readings of the New Testament Bible Experience on Premier Radio London, A UK christian radio station and was very impressed. Several weeks later I bought 6 copies of The Complete Bible Experience, 2 as Mother's day presents for my mother in Toronto and my Aunt in UK/Jamaica, 3 as birthday presents for my brother in Florida , my cousin and my friend in the UK and 1 one for myself. I bought another copy this morning for my cousin in Georgia USA who gave birth to her second son 2 months ago.
I have only listened to some of the Old and New Testament but I am very happy with my purchase as it allows me to listen to the Bible being read while I am busy working in the home, getting ready to go to work or getting read to go out. I am discovering, learning and enjoying parts of the Bible I have never read before.
Clearly the best purchase I have ever made.

 Not perfect, but probably the best audio TNIV around April 27, 2008

Amazon.com reviewers have stated that this product brings the Bible to life. I agree. When I used the NIV as my printed translation of choice (1991-2008), I listened to Zondervan's excellent "Dramatised NIV" (ISBN 9780310918639) - a quality Audio Bible in its own right. But enormous effort and dedication has gone into producing the Bible Experience. The voices, background music & special effects all kick ass. Acts 5:23 sounds like a line from a rap-song; u can picture the narrator wearing shades and a baseball cap, ya know what am sayin'? What a refreshing, original way to narrate the Bible! There's also a bonus DVD, which is interesting. The 80-CD set is presented in Zondervan's usual, tastefully designed zip-up case.
The voices, special effects, etc. are so good that I would name this the "Crème de la Crème" of audio Bibles were it not for 5 irritating flaws...
1. The chapter number should be announced at the beginning of each track.
2. Both Testaments should have used the same voice for God the Father.
3. The voicing of 1 & 2 Thessalonians is a disaster; Having a male Paul and a female Paul is confusing, inappropriate and unnecessary. This alone cost my review a star (and nearly 2!).
4. Hebrews may possibly have been written by a couple yet there's at least 3 voices employed here, which is confusing. Most likely the epistle was written by a woman (see ISBN 9781882897506 & its reviews) so the same female voice for all 13 chapters would have worked far better.
5. The songs should appear on separate "bonus" CDs. I bought 16 blank CDs and re-recorded the NT omitting both the songs AND the Theme (which appears twice on each CD in the original). It's well worth the few hours of effort; I can now enjoy the entire NT from Matthew 1 to Revelation 22 without interruption.
Notwithstanding the above irritants, if you use TNIV as your printed translation of choice then this is probably the best audio version of it on the market.

I brought this item as I received an email ad for it from a friend. I have been truely inspired and am absolutely loving it. I was brought up in the Chritian faith so know many of the stories and have tried to read the bible from start to finish unsucessfully. However hearing the bible spoken to you in the King James Version (new) brought it to life as I seem to have gained a better/greater understanding of stories in the bible, which I had heard, in there entirity. I was able to follow the speaker in my own bible and it made me more aware of scriptures that I had heard as I am able to picture the people, places and the situation. Newly saved (born again)or mature in the faith, non christian, any denomination will enjoy listening to this. I have brought one for a family member and several other friends and family are and have purchased their own copy.
