“The Truth & Life Dramatized audio Bible is entirely faithful to the text of the Holy Scriptures. The manner in which the text is performed, beautifully assists the listener in understanding the meaning of the divinely inspired words within their context. The background music and sound effects helps the listener to imagine the setting of each particular text of the Holy Bible. I am happy to give my wholehearted endorsement to the audio New Testament.”

--Cardinal Raymond L. Burke,
Perfect of the Apostolic Signature of the Holy See

“This is the way Scripture is supposed to sound. Revealing and passionate performances from world class actors, a lyrical translation, and sound effects that put you in the middle of the action. Whether you’ve read the Bible a hundred times or are making the first contact, this is an experience you will not forget and one you will want to repeat often.”

--Laura Ingraham,
Radio Talk Show Host, New York Times Bestselling Author

“We learn by hearing as well as reading. Those who desire to become true disciples of Jesus will want to learn from His words in every way. For anyone interested in beginning or continuing their adventure of faith, I highly recommend this faithful and powerful presentation of the Word of God.”

--The Most Reverend Charles Chaput,
Archbishop of Philadelphia, PA

Pros and cons of EWTN app for iPhone and iPad

EWTN app good for

I love this app. The streaming video option is a great way to watch videos that you may otherwise miss. But most importantly is the audio version of the New Testament. I listen to it everyday on my way to work and the voice actors are amazing at bringing to life the beautiful words of our Christ and the apostles. I hope an audio version of the Old Testament is in the works. Overall, a must for all Catholics.

...the "Audio on Demand" is inconsistent. Morning Glory is one of my favorites but I cant listen live. Only on demand. But lately, it has not worked. Buggy or something. Please fix. God bless.

Fantastic coverage and dedication in documentation and learning materials about our faith!! Praise God indeed!

I listen to EWTN radio everyday! This app is great for all Catholics and those wanting to learn more!

EWTN provides the first necessity for me each day. All I want is to breathe the air of prayer, to eat the Word of God, drink the Cup of His Sacrifice living in Gods Love & His Will forever. EWTN does this by helping me know, love and serve MY GOD each day so that I indeed might live with Him forever...

As the title says, everything works flawlessly, the video and audio podcasts are clear and quick. I bought the bible audio too. The way it is spoken is better than a Hollywood production. Not just a voice reading to you, rather multiple voices and realistic background sounds that let you imagine you are right there.

Some bad moments

I love EWTN and I listen often when Im driving long distances. For the longest time the audio Bible would randomly start playing - even when the app was closed. It stopped a few months ago and I was SO happy. Until the last update... Guess whats happening again.

I downloaded the App and purchased the Audio. It worked great for half the day. Unfortunately, it now has stopped playing all audio. At first I thought it was a bug with the Spanish content and quickly realized that it was all content. I think this App will be great when the development team can get it to work properly. PLEASE FIX as soon as possible. Thank you

The rosary continues to display "no data retrieved." Please look into this since I am now unable to pray the rosary with Mother Angelica. I use the at least once a day and sometimes twice. Thank you and God bless.

I am very upset I bought the Bible part of this app and it doesnt work . It plays a book for about three minutes and then it jumps over to Mark. This is very frustrating because I have to go back and try and find where it left off at. So sad I really wanted this audio bible to work. ;(

I bought the Audio Bible, but it plays for a few minutes then it stops. Its very frustrating and time consuming, especially when Im trying to focus on Gods Word. I am using an iPhone 5S. Please fix.

App is not updating, i can't use the Audio anymore ! i send emails to customer service but no one ever answered to my complaints!
