The Truth and Life Bible – Dramatized by over 70 actors
A new audio version of the New Testament dramatized by numerous celebrities is being heralded as a “significant” contribution to modern evangelizing and for sparking a renewed interest in the gripping narrative of Scripture. The audio series – which has the support of a Vatican imprimatur – features over 70 actors such as John Rhys-Davies, Neil McDonough, Julia Ormand and Kristen Bell.The Truth & Life Dramatized Audio Bible New Testament is comprised of 18 CDs, or 22 hours of audio.
New York Times bestselling author and broadcast journalist for EWTN Raymond Arroyo, who helped produce the audio Bible, explained that the actors aren’t simply “reading” the text but “sharing” the Gospel story by means of oral tradition.
British actor John Rhys-Davies – perhaps known best for his role as the dwarf Gimli in the blockbuster Lord of the Rings trilogy – served as narrator of the series.
In a phone interview from his home in New Zealand, he praised the audio Bible for being “extremely well done.”
