GoBible has partnered with Fellowship for the Performing Arts (FPA) and the International Bible Society (IBS) to produce the New International Version (NIV) in the Original GoBible, its popular audio Bible.

Read by critically acclaimed narrator and FPA President Max McLean, The Listener's Bible-NIV GoBible can be heard on a small hand-held device, which allows users to scan through the Old and New Testaments by using the interactive menu on its LCD screen, GoBible said.

Currently, all other audio versions of the Bible are recorded and indexed at the chapter level only, while GoBible's technology allows the user to search, play and bookmark any individual verse in the entire Bible.

"So many people in our modern world are turning away from the printed page," said Steve Johnson, global publisher for IBS-STL (Send the Light). "Because of this, we think it's critical to reach people with Scripture in new, innovative ways. The combination of the GoBible and the NIV as the most trusted English translation is a marriage that will reach countless people with God's Word in a dynamic, new format."

The Listener's Bible, which retails for $99.95 and weighs about as much as the AAA battery that powers the device, will be available later this month.
