I love to listen to Alexander Scourby read the Bible! I used to have it on CD, but now listen on youtube. The channel I watch on is "Good Hope". I always run to the Psalms when troubled, so few weeks ago worked my way through all of them. As of this morning, I have been through Matthew and Mark...now on to Luke.
I'm ashamed to say that I think I have only read through the entire Bible in sequence I think twice in my life. I, like some people, tend to run to my favorite parts. Anyway going to make it all the way through on YouTube. I also pull Blue Letter Bible up on my phone and follow as I listen. Double audible/visual duty helps to retain the information.
Anyway, just sharing this.
God Bless!

Jan, Per our telephone conversation a couple of days ago, I checked out the Scourby bible audio website. The voice of the person reading the bible is fairly good, better than the voice in the Wonder bible audio. Your listening to the reading of the bible with Scourby’s voice is probably a convenient way of going through the bible. I prefer to just read the bible, but I do listen to a lot of old time christian songs.
I also checked out Pastor Tony Evans, who you said preached a powerful sermon. This is one of his sermons re h-sexuality.
https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=pastor+tony+evans+on+homosexuality+video&&view=detail&mid=1CC0B5374EF76F5C097A1CC0B5374EF76F5C097A&&FORM=VRDGAR before the 4:30 mark, Pastor Tony Evans gives a kind of OSAS doctrine relative to h-sexuals. He states that this passage of I Corin. 6 justifies h-sexuals who have already been saved.
9) Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate [same sex], nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10) Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11) And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. -----------------
Pastor Tony Evans might be typical of minority preachers who are kind of “cookie cutters” of fundamental bible schools. The Dallas Seminary he graduated from -- teaches OSAS (once saved always saved) and the pretrib rapture, but are they right? I used to call it “easy believism.” Are they really saved? or did the fundamentalists twist biblical words to make salvation conform to their ideas?
Otherwise, Pastor Tony Evans sermons are kind of basically enlightening (good heavenly ideas) and charismatic (soothing and gentle). His son Anthony Evans, Jr. also is a popular singer with a soothing and gentle voice.
Further in Pastor T.E.’s sermon, he differentiates between position and inheritance – that the position of the “saved” h-sexual if secure, he’s going to heaven regardless, but the inheritance might be diminished. One thing he says is crucial, from I Corin. 6:13, “the body is for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.” On the whole, a very good sermon.
This is just a conjecture: since sexual perversion and going to heaven are not compatible, there might be “reincarnation” for the “saved” h-sexual to change his ways. “Reincarnation” is also not part of fundamentalist teaching, except that they’re against it. Even after the second coming, there might be reincarnation, because there will be 1000 years on earth under Christ’s reign, before the final resurrection to eternal heaven.
