I can't count the number of times I've stumbled on the pronunciations of different names in the Bible. And as a worship leader, I make sure that when reading passages during the service, I skip those verses that I know will display my full ignorance in front of everyone. So when coming across Bible Audio Pronunciations for the iPhone, I was instantly intrigued by the idea and as soon as I played the first name in the list and heard a crisp, clear pronunciation of the name, I was hooked.

Great app!  Very user friendly. - Steph

Nice app!  I know a lot of people who hate reading from the Bible out loud because they are afraid of mispronouncing things.  This app will put their minds at ease.  Instead of worrying about how to say something we can focus on what we are saying and the message of what we are reading.  Thanks! - theisoms

PRESS RELEASE

WALDORF, MD – Giving readers an innovative new way to experience a sacred text, the Bible Audio Pronunciations iPhone application announces its launch today, featuring audio recordings of over 3,780 challenging words.

To provide people with a new way to experience the Bible, the app will play recordings of terms, names, and places that many people find difficult to pronounce. The app can be especially helpful with unfamiliar Biblical names such as Shealtiel and Epaenetus.

"We wanted to give people an easy tool to raise their level of understanding and enjoyment from reading the Bible," said Michael Vance, creator of Bible Audio Pronunciations. "This app will speak out loud some of its most difficult words."

The over 3,780 audio clips were carefully researched and recorded to give listeners a clear answer to their pronunciation questions. Thanks to the portability of the iPhone and iPad devices, the Bible Audio Pronunciations app is designed to be used at home, church, or with others.

"The Bible is meant to shared with others, and this app helps people do that with confidence," Michael Vance said. "It is perfect for reading to your children, speaking at church, or reciting at a Bible study group."
