Good but not great I feel kind of guilty for criticizing anything that promotes the Bible but in all honesty it was good & had the cherished King James Version, but it was not great like The Bible Experience. The reason being is the Actors could have put more emotion into their voices esp. Jim who played Jesus. I wonder were most of the actors in The Word of Promise born again Christians and realized the depth of what they were saying. ALot of the actors in the Bible Experience professed Christ as their Lord so they put all they had into their speaking parts. Jim sounded kind of robotic and not as natural, this may have been a carry over from the movie when he did not speak in English so we did not get a good grasp of the how his voice sounded in English (only the visual) in the "Passion of the Christ) which he was great in & should have won an Oscar if Hollywood was not at the time so bias against Christian movies but in any event I expected alot greater passion as would give it a B not an A plus. If any actors read this next time you make a Christian audio put more passion in your voice. This is God we are talking about afterall! | |||||||||
The Word of Promise: New Testament Audio Bible I received this as a birthday gift. It is an amazing production! I listen to this set while I am getting dressed in the morning and it is so inspirational. I appreciate all of the artistry that went into creating this product. I highly recommend this to everyone. | |||||||||
Wonderful This is the first time I have listened to the bible on cd and it is wonderful. I would definately suggest this to anyone. I often read along with the cd or sometimes listen alone. This has really helped me in my quest of reading the bible in a year. The voices and the added background sounds makes it seems alive. As you listen, you can almost picture the scenes. | |||||||||
VERY well done! The Word of Promise is very well done - worth every penny! I would recommend it to anyone interested in hearing the Word of God! | |||||||||
Stiff I was very disappointed. The characterizations at least in the Gospels are stiff religious sounding caricatures of real human beings. For example, Jesus sounds like he's anemic and depressed, unappealing and too wimpy to wield a hammer. | |||||||||
