Not exactly Christian music, but thought this may interest many of our readers. Zondervan now has a free podcast available of the Christmas story from the New Testament. It’s actually a small snippet of the new Bible Experience.
Hear the words of the Bible brought to life like never before. Inspired By… The Bible Experience: New Testament Audio CD or MP3 CD includes a fully dramatized reading of the complete New Testament performed by an unprecedented ensemble of distinguished all-star actors, musicians, and personalities. A cast of more than 200 stars, including Blair Underwood (Jesus), Samuel L. Jackson (God), Angela Bassett (Esther), Denzel Washington (Solomon), Cuba Gooding Jr. (Judas), and many others, lent their talents to create The Bible Experience, a one-of-a-kind dramatized audio recording of the Bible, complete with an outstanding original musical underscore.
The fact that Samuel Jackson is speaking the part of God may have been cool initially, however, some of his latest commercials advertising his hosting of the 4th Annual Video Game Awards on SPIKE TV take all that away. He throws some nice expletives in the commercial particularly on using God’s name, which irritates me.
