God's Gift You May Not Know About: It's AMAZING!!

In this heartfelt conversation, Bible narrator and voice actor Dan Parr shares how an unexpected calling led him to adapt and record the entire Bible in clear, modern language—one book at a time—guided by prayer and the Holy Spirit. Dan opens up about early life moments that shaped his faith, why he chose the World English Bible as a public-domain base, and how he carefully honors traditional scholarship while making scripture accessible to today’s listener. Together, we explore what it means to invite Jesus into our everyday lives and lean on the Holy Spirit as helper, counselor, and friend.

We also get practical: discerning spirits (1 John 4), the Holy Spirit’s role in remembrance and guidance (John 14), and living “sealed” and softened (Ephesians 4). We touch on angels, intention, frequency, and how aligning with love clears the noise. I share my own journey of welcoming Jesus back into my heart and the relief that followed. If you’ve ever felt curious about scripture but unsure where to begin, this episode meets you with warmth, honesty, and hope.
