Great Listen but Horribly Organized

I love the book. Best story ever. I love the way this version is divided up so that you can listen throughout the year. But I HATE that no one took the time to label the sections. There is absolutely no way to know where you are without personally going through the many, many hours of recording and bookmarking sections. It is divided Part 1, Part 2, etc and each day is separated as a Chapter within each part. It would have been so simple to label each Chapter with the date instead of a Chapter number. Very disappointing. Good thing I like the subject matter or I would have considered it waste of money!

No titles, challenging navigation

Let me begin by saying that I really like the narration for this audio Bible.
That being said, I find it frustrating that the books are not titled. They are only listed by number.
The user is almost forced into following the one year plan or at the very least, starting from the beginning. I wouldn't mind doing that, but I'd also like to be able to hop around quickly.

There is no way to identify where certain books are located. So if you want to read the Gospels, you will have a tough time locating these pages.
It seems it could have been a simple fix to make it user friendly so that the user could skip around if they choose. If the different sections in this audio book were titled I'd definitely give it 5 stars.

I just finished listening to the Greatest Book ever written. I will start tomorrow to read and listen through this Book once more. The reader is top notch. Thank you👍

Very hard to find your place

I just downloaded this Bible, my first purchase through Audible, and am very disappointed with how difficult it was to find my place. This is a day by day devotional and when you start mid year, well let's just say you download one section and hope it's the right one and when it isn't it can get a little frustrating finding the day you're on. I expected it to be a little more detailed and to be able to find my place better.

Please fix synching!

I love this daily Bible. I have it in hardback, kindle, & Audible! But the cross- device synching does not work for me in Audible, which is crucial in a book of this type. Unless the chapter list is named the same as the respective days - which it is not - the only way to synch is to compare the device you normally use to the new one, & find your current chapter number. I'm sure you can see the flaw there. Please fix this. I want to have it on my phone, too!

The Best Way to get to understand the Bible

Would you consider the audio edition of The One Year Bible NLT to be better than the print version?

Hearing all the words; one can't pronounce, is the greatest!

What was one of the most memorable moments of The One Year Bible NLT?

I get to feel like I'm there. I better understand the meaning of what is being said.

Which character – as performed by Todd Busteed – was your favorite?

Really all. Paul, David and of course Jesus.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I enjoy listening to this every day and sometimes I replay the chapters I love. I can't start my day without it.

Any additional comments?

I love this way of hearing the Bible. I've recommended this to so many people.
Best invention since spell check.

Missing Dates

I love this audible Bible, but I wish the “chapters” were labeled by date rather than numbers since the chapters are technically the reading for the day. I don’t use this audible book every day so sometimes if a couple weeks go by, I’d like to pick up where I left off from my reading on today’s date. I have no way of knowing what chapter 56 is unless I start listening.

Excellent audible 1-year audio bible

Loved the way the audible rendition followed along with the 1-year Bible on Kindle. Loved that the audible version did not require internet but could be downloaded onto both my ipad and iphone. Loved being able to change the speed at which the day's reading was read. Loved getting the daily bible from each Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms and Proverbs! Fantastic, recommend for everyone!

Great layout for first time listeners.

God is awesome and desires your attention. Listen and try to understand his word for he will bless your heart and strengthen your understanding.

I prefer plain reading

I prefer it a plain reading Bible to reading like a drama, because it may mislead me in thinking what had happened written on the Bible were exactly like what the voice presents on this audio book.
On the other hand, the person who reads this audio book sometimes reads loudly, sometimes too low. It is hard for me to set the right volume.
