Listening to the Bible will change the way you understand scripture. The stories and poems and instructions comes in through the ears and consume your whole being as God's word becomes part of a living experience. The Common English Bible is not simply a revision or update of an existing translation. It is a bold new translation designed to meet the needs of Christians as they work to build a strong and meaningful relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Who is it for?

Excellent Translation And Narration
Revisado: 04-04-23
It’s too daunting for me to review The Bible on its content. There are so many books comprised of so many genres by so many authors that each one deserves its own evaluation of content.
Instead, I will focus on the translation, which sets this version apart from others. I found it very enjoyable and accessible, akin to the better translations of other ancient epics like Gilgamesh, The Iliad, and Beowulf. It makes these stories from the distant past more relevant and relatable for the modern reader.
The 120 translators for the Common English Bible, all from different denominations and backgrounds, went back to the most ancient texts available, including:
* The Dead Sea Scrolls
* The Septuagint, which is a Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible made between 300-200 BCE
* The Vulgate, which is a Latin translation of the Bible made by Jerome in the 4th century CE
* The Syriac Peshitta, which is a Syriac translation of the Bible made in the 2nd century CE
* The Samaritan Pentateuch, which is a version of the first five books of Moses used by Samaritans
Using these sources for Biblical accuracy, and having a balance of word-for-word and thought-for-thought translation methods, gives me the confidence that I am hearing something as close to the original stories, poems, letters, and genealogy rosters that I can hope to understand without learning Hebrew and Aramaic.
Whether a reader’s purpose is spiritual or academic, I recommend this work. The multiple narrators strike a fine balance between entertaining and informative, but never melodramatic. The only drawback (as other reviewers have noted) is that the audiobook is not searchable by chapter or verse number, but this can be remedied by following along with a print version of the CEB. Most of the Bible stories originated through oral tradition, anyway, so perhaps this can be looked at as another way of staying true to the original sources.

New Age diva Squirrelly Chicane - the hottest channeler the side of Atlantis - has made millions getting high on the afterlife. So when a delegation of Himalayan holy men convince a very stoned Squirrelly that she's an incarnation of the Bunji Lama, she figures ruling their little country would be a kick. But big bad China is playing a game of turf war - and Tibet is the unlucky first contestant.

Sounds Like Fun To Me
Revisado: 04-23-22
As a fan of old radio shows and modern audio dramas, I was intrigued by GraphicAudio’s promise of “A Movie For Your Mind”. A full cast and sound effects recording of a Destroyer story sounded right up my alley. I’m happy to say it met all my expectations.
Like most/all entries in The Destroyer series, this one was packed with satire and ridiculous, over-the-top action, hilariously brought to life by the cast and various sounds (such as popping champagne corks when the bad guys were having the tops of their heads popped off). Yes, it is silly. It would be silly to read, but the sounds really took this over the top in all the right ways.
Anyone expecting a serious action/thriller has obviously not read anything in The Destroyer series before. However, those wanting a sendup of the action/thriller genre will find this an enjoyable listen.
