Praise for the Print Edition
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 this audio New Testament.
—Most Reverend Raymond L. Burke, Prefect of the Apostolic Signatura of the Holy See
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.
—The Most Reverend Charles Chaput, Archbishop of Denver
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.
—Laura Ingraham, radio talk show host and New York Times bestselling author

Used to have a text/audio sync problem, but now fully fixed - Thank you review changed to 5 stars! - Is there a way to choose word by word highlighting for audio on the iphone the way you can on the Mac app?

A great resource to supplement devotional reading. It would be nice to also have the Old Testament available in Verbum.Stephen Joyner

This is a good dramatization that reads the Bible word for word. It features continuous background music, lots of added sound effects, and even synthesized vocal effects. It can be over done at times, but all in all it is very enjoyable. I highly recommend this audiobook. I hope the Old Testament is coming soon, but its been 6 years since the New Testament was released and I couldn't find any creditable information on the Old Testament. It works with the "Read Aloud" feature in Logos' RSVCE Bible (https://www.logos.com/product/667/the-revised-standard-version-catholic-edition) just like the ESV Hear the Word Audio Bible (https://www.logos.com/product/34146/esv-hear-the-word-audio-bible) plays with the print ESV Bible. So scrolling through the text automatically fast forwards/rewinds the text. Even the "word by word indicator" works. I think this is the 1994 RSVCE, definitely not the 2006.
