Goal #5 Listen to The Bible on Audio


One of my goals for 2015, in addition to reading the Bible, is to LISTEN to the Bible. I have found TWO audio bibles available through Bible Gateway that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE and ADORE. The NIV-UK narration by David Suchet!!! And the KJV Dramatized Bible. I'll indicate which version/narration I listened to for each book. This is a year-long goal. For the record, my 2014 Bible records ended on December 27. My 2015 Bible records began on December 28th.


Written by Moses
1. Genesis (NIV-UK, completed December 30, 2014)
2. Exodus (NIV-UK, completed December 30, 2014)
3. Leviticus (NIV-UK, completed December 31, 2014)*
4. Numbers (NIV-UK, completed January 1, 2015)
5. Deuteronomy (NIV-UK completed January 2, 2015)

*Note: Listening to someone else read Leviticus is just as dry as reading it yourself with the exception that you can't skim through it. And if you're like me, you can READ faster than the narrator reading it aloud. How does listening to Leviticus compare to listening to Exodus or Genesis? Well, I found both Genesis and Exodus entertaining and enjoyable. There's a story to follow, and plenty of stuff happens. Leviticus *is* important…it is all about establishing worship and stressing the importance of how we can approach God, how we should approach God--with reverence and respect, always keeping in mind that God is holy, holy, holy.
