Word of Promise – Next Generation New Testament
I originally decided to get the Word of Promise – Next Generation New Testament to have something that I could just listen to in the background as I went through my day, however I soon realized that it could be used in many different aspects from personal Spiritual growth, to Bible studies / small groups, and to ministry in general. I have never been a big fan of audio Bibles, but this one along with the all-star cast really bring the Word of God to life, especially in the minds of teenagers. Unfortunately, because of the format of these MP3 CDs they do not play on all CD players. There has been times that I would like to have listened to them in my vehicle, but was unable to because of the incompatibility with my old-school CD player. Thomas Nelson does offer the CD unabridged version which comes on 20 CDs for just a little over the MP3 CD price. I should also mention that the Word of Promise – Next Generation New Testament is tailored for teenagers in mind. Some adults might find these audio CDs to be a little on the youthful side. I personally am not the biggest fan of this translation, but I do feel that students will be able to comprehend the New Testament in great ways because of it. I would recommend the Word of Promise (NKJV) for those who prefer a little more traditional translation / adult narration. Over all this would be a great asset to add to your collection or to give to the teenager in your family / youth group.
