The Bible Experience

I stumbled upon Zondervan’s The Bible Experience last night as I was avoiding my last project of finals week. I’m sure I’m way behind the times on this, so everything in this post may be old news. The Bible Experience is a dramatized audio recording of the entire Bible (TNIV) by a multitude of African American actors, church leaders, singers, and other cool people. Just watching the promotional videos could make anyone want to fork out over $100 dollars. Upon further investigation, I found an interview with Denzel Washington and his wife about their decision to record Song of Songs together. I don’t know much about their beliefs (I think I read somewhere that Denzel grew up in the Church of Christ), but the Washingtons’ high respect of scripture comes through in the interview. And a high view of scripture, even among those who claim to be Christian, is getting to be rare these days. http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/i_video/main500251.shtml?id=2661708n
