THE BIBLE COMES TO LIFE!

"The Word of Promise" brings the New Testament to life like never before! Done in the style of an old-time radio program, actors' narration are blended with sound effects and a stirring orchestral score to bring the listener to the Holy Lands when these events took place, bringing power and emotion to the Holy Scriptures!
Overall, the actors' narration is fantastic! Jim Caviezel is fantastic as Jesus, though he is hit-and-miss in some places. Stacey Keach is fantastic as Paul, lending his voice to a huge chunk of this production. Lou Diamond Phillips, Louis Gossett, Jr., Michael York, Marisa Tomei and many others lend their talents to this truly remarkable production!
"The Word of Promise" is brilliant listening; a remarkable interpretation of the twenty-seven books of the New Testament. Whether you're new to the Bible, or have read the scriptures all your life, you'll find "The Word of Promise" a truly powerful experience!

New Love for the Word

I love The Word of Promise. I listen to it every time I'm in my car. I agree that Jim Caviezel can sound flat at times. But overall he did a fine job, especially the final hours of Jesus' life up to the cross. My favorite actor is Stacey Keach as Paul. He is outstanding! I love the sound effects, too. This would be a wonderful gift for someone of the younger generation that doesn't love to read.

The Best I've Heard So Far

I own about a dozen different audio Bibles and this one is by far the best. The score and sound effects are beautiful and the actors did an excellent job.

They split the tracks by chapter and did a good job of putting the complete books on one CD.

My only negatives were that sometimes it feels like the actors are just reading it and the voice of satan/demons were a bit...shall we say trick-or-treat (I was hoping for more of an Exorcist/Omen).

The Promise Delivers

This is very well done. The Word of Promise is very well read and acted. Some of the interpretation may be questionable in regard to the book of Revelation. The overall meaning of the scripture is being conveyed very well. The overall tone and feel of the presentation is very similiar to a childrens' program called "Greatest Heroes of the Bible". This would be a good tool to get your kids interested in the Word of God.
