Free “Easter Story” from iTunes

Posted April 9th @ 9:20 pm by Brian Print This Post

This is a day late (literally) and a probably a dollar short, but I thought I’d pass it along nevertheless:

Apple and Inspired By Media are giving away a free copy of the Easter story via iTunes. From the iTunes store:

The story of the events leading up to and including the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ are reenacted with incredible drama, sound effects, and cinema-quality background music. The Scripture portions included in this audio program are from Matthew chapters 26-28. Taken from Inspired By… The Bible Experience, you will hear Blair Underwood as Jesus, Cuba Gooding Jr. as Judas, and many other leading celebrities bring to life the drama of the last days of Jesus, his sacrifical death, and triumphant resurrection.

The Bible Experience has received rather mixed coverage in some parts, but here’s a chance to check it out yourself.

Here’s a link directly into iTunes to download the audio file. Note you’ll need iTunes, found here, to use that link successfully. I’m not sure how long they’ll be giving it away for free, so if you want a copy, I’d download it sooner rather than later.

Of course, after you take a listen, let us know what you think!

    Our 4th through 6th graders were awestruck with the Easter Story and gospel portions we’ve played so far. I have not listened to the epistles yet, but I suspect Acts and Revelation will be equally dramatic and heart-rending.

    I think this will become a Sunday School staple. This is a gold mine for reaching our kids.

    The only thing missing is a mapping from Book, Chapter, and Verse to location on the mp3.
