Entertaining and Educational

What I like about "Bible Stories for Modern Teens " by DreamDrift Publishing, is the amazing amount of bible adventures detailed in short, easy to understand stories. Acts of compassion and acts of betrayal. It's all there to learn from. The principles taught are a great foundation of wisdom for personal interaction today.

Great Approach to Religion for Next Generation

I found the audiobook very enjoyable, and they made it approachable for the teenage audience. It doesn't sound so old-timey that modern kids would have a hard time following it. Reading the Bible or Apocrypha can often be daunting, but this uses modern-day language. I also like that it addresses issues that today's teens face, including identity questions, peer pressure, and defining their purpose in life. This would be perfect for a religious study or bible study group, engaging teens and allowing for better and more open conversations about struggles that they may be feeling. The chapters are relatively short - and can hold kids' attention. Great for the next generation of those leading in faith.

Parables delivered in an easily digestible format

This audiobook presents 50 interesting and valuable parables delivered in an easy to listen to format. Each story begins with a preface that sets the scene for the story and what to pay attention to, then delivers the story and goes deeper into to life lessons taught and how we can apply them in our daily live to enrich our morals, values, and overall life experience.

Great for teens as they are able to dive into a quick parable, learn the life lessons, get back on track with their busy schedule, and hop back in at any time.

Even though it is aimed at teens, this is also great for adults who want quick short bursts of life lessons. As the saying goes: "We need to be reminded more than we need to be told" and listening to these parables on a daily basis will help keep you on track to a meaningful and enriching life.

This audio-book is a winner all around.

This book is a wonderful support to the teenagers in my life! Here are a few of my favorite things about this wonderful audiobook:

- The narrator – his enunciation and expression is both very pleasant and inviting and it grabs attention. His pacing is perfect and he obviously has a great deal of experience and this certainly does come through in his voice and expression.

- The Bible stories are selected from both the Old Testament and the New Testament and are well-chosen for a young person to relate to. There are scores of stories – this is a treasure trove – and I was shocked at how many stories there are in the bible meant to teach us how to live and love.

- Obviously, a lot of thought went into both the selection of the stories and how to best interpret them so that teenagers and young adults will grasp both the story and what it might mean in their own lives. I am impressed with how much thought has gone into both the choice of stories and how they are told. It is wonderful to see such attention to detail and consideration of this particular audience.

- Action steps and suggestions for how the lessons from the stories can be brought into the actual lives of the listener. Even as an adult, it was helpful for me to hear these thoughts. After all, if the lessons are to affect our lives, as Jesus intended, we have to understand what his teachings actually mean in real life. I’m so glad my grandchildren will have these encouraging lessons to guide them in living these important lessons.

- At the end of most of almost each story, the listener is given some version, “So, in your own life, when you are feeling discouraged and feeling that you are not enough, think about this story and the lesson it teaches. Reach for the truths that this story teaches and embrace the truth that you are of great worth and this story encourages you to embrace and believe this and act on it. This gives the listener something to think about and act on in their real lives.

This audiobook is not only for young people, but it is especially crafted with their needs and world-view. On the other hand, I got a lot out of this book, even though I have grandchildren!

Engaging Faith Exploration for Teens


As a parent, I've always wanted to encourage my children's spiritual growth, but the language of the Bible can be a hurdle, especially for my two. This transforms a lot of the timeless biblical narratives into relatable stories, using language and themes that resonate with younger audiences.

The audiobook strikes a beautiful balance between faithfulness to the original and a fresh approach that makes the stories accessible. We found ourselves having deeper conversations about faith, values, and finding inspiration in the lives of biblical figures.

What I appreciated even more is that the audiobook doesn't oversimplify complex themes. It maintains the wisdom and depth of the Bible while presenting it in a way that invites reflection and personal application.

Especially good narration!

This audiobook, which contains the core biblical stories, is really well narrated. The narrator does an exceptional job of keeping the stories flowing nicely, with a pleasant tone and also varying through character voices and explanations. They do it in such a way as to entertain and get the atmosphere going. The stories of the paralysed man, good samaritan and others are in there to help promote the positive values and inspiration we might receive from them.

very insightful

This is a refreshing take that brings timeless biblical narratives into the context of today's world. Reading it, I was struck by how the stories I thought I knew unfolded in new and relatable ways. These stories resonate with contemporary issues, from navigating friendships and family dynamics to tackling personal ethics and the search for identity. For any teen or parent looking for a way to discuss faith and life's big questions, this book is a valuable and engaging resource.

An Essential Guide to Understanding God's Word

They're not just stories, they are lessons to live by. Whether it be Adam and Eve's sin in the Garden of Eden, Noah building the ark, Jonah in the belly of the fish, Daniel surviving the lion's den, or Jesus delivering the Sermon on the Mount, this book gives a synopsis of each story, then combines it with spiritual insight and moral lessons. Whether you learned these stories in Sunday school or are reading them for the first time, this book will help explain not only the themes and analysis in each story but also lessons we can learn from them and apply to every situation in our daily lives. This book will not only convict you, but it will strengthen your faith.

This is an excellent book I would recommend for daily devotions. While the book is geared toward teens, it can also be useful for children or adults as well.
