Listening to the Bible through the Daily Audio Bible App read by Brian Hardin. The version of the Bible he reads is changed each week so each year I pick a different Bible to post in my books. For 2022 I chose this version. By Dec 31st, we will have read the entire Bible again, my 4th full year. Please join us using the free Daily Audio Bible app, it will change your life!
