Audio Treasure
This is a simple yet very effective free site which allows you to either listen to recordings of the Bible or various sermons online (only if you have winamp installed), or download them as mp3s.
I find audio bibles to be really useful, for various reasons. They are easy to listen to and allow you to take in the entire Bible quickly, within a few days. When somebody else is reading to you it gives you time to contemplate what is being said.(Although you can do this when reading, I find it easier to comprehend the text when it is being read, and when I am not concentrating on the task of reading, itself). There are names of people and places in the Bible that can be hard to pronounce, an audio Bible will pronounce them correctly for you.
The available versions are public domain editions of the Bible: The King James Version, The World English Bible and various other Bibles in numerous languages including Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic etc.
The King James Version is read by Stephen Johnston, who reads well, and is easy to listen to and understand. Light music accompanies the reading in the background.
There are also worship songs and free christian audio books, which include 'At the masters feet', 'God of all comfort', 'Inspiration of the Bible' and many more.
It is a very simple site to navigate and immensely useful, particularly for the hard of sight or the blind.
You also have the option of buying the audio Bibles and/or books on CDs for a small price.

Hello
ReplyDeleteI am looking to trade links with similar blogs and I thought you might be interested. That way people who visit my blog come to yours and vice versa.
My blog is titled reflections on the Christ and I just finished a series of thoughts and studies on the end-time.@ http://chasong.blogspot.com
I am currently exploring thoughts around a real walk with God – which is a bit difficult to define in practical terms.
If you feel it’s relevant to your blog, do drop a comment on my blog so we can link up.
Thanks loads and keep shining

Some free online audio Bibles on www.HolyBibleSeach.net & www.BibleGateway.com in MP3 format or text to speech (TTS) synthesis. Can be fun to read along while you listen to another person's voice. No software needed, just need a web browser.
