How do I change Bible translations/narrators and what translations do TTW teachers use?

Want to change which Bible translation you want to follow along with? Follow these steps:

1. Tap on the audio guide you want to listen to (make sure you're on the screen viewing the Bible text).
2. Tap on the grey oval button in the upper right corner (NIV is the default).
3. Choose from CSB, ESV, KJV, NASB, NIV, NKJV, or NLT. (Select "Learn More" to understand the differences between the translations.)

By the way, the British narrator for the NIV translation is actor David Suchet

What Bible translations do TTW teachers use?

We've used different Bible translations for various books of the Bible for a couple of reasons. We're also working on making the translation more consistent in the future.

Currently, we record all new audio guides with the NIV. You'll find the NIV in most of the audio guides from Kris Langham, Peyton Jones, Melanie Hurlbut, TeDese Ross, and Chase Acuña. However, several years ago, we were using the ESV on the app because we did not have a license with the NIV yet. As a result, you'll hear the ESV in some of the older recordings, primarily from Kris and possibly Peyton.

Additionally, the audio guides from Sandy Adams and Skip Heitzig use the NKJV. So, those are the three main translations we've used.

We apologize for any confusion this may have caused and are working toward making all of the guides in the NIV. However, this will take some time. We appreciate your patience as we continue to improve.
