Is the audio Bible on The Historic Faith really free?
Yes. Every translation, every book, and every chapter is 100% free with no signup required. We provide it as a ministry to make the Word of God accessible to everyone, in partnership with Faith Comes By Hearing.

Can I listen to the audio Bible offline?
Yes. The Historic Faith is a Progressive Web App (PWA), so you can install it on your phone home screen and download chapters for offline listening. Audio also continues playing when your screen is locked.
What makes this audio Bible different from BibleGateway or AudioBible.com?
Three things: (1) verse-by-verse highlighting that follows the audio in real time, (2) tap any Greek or Hebrew word to see Strong's definition and pronunciation, and (3) every chapter shows what the early church fathers (Ante-Nicene, before AD 325) wrote about it.
Do I need to log in to listen?
No. You can listen anonymously. If you create a free account we'll save your highlights, notes, reading progress, and let you sync across devices.
Can I follow a Bible reading plan or Bible-in-a-year schedule?
Yes. Reading progress is tracked automatically per chapter and per translation. You earn points for completing chapters, and the dashboard shows you what's left in your current plan.
Where does the Greek and Hebrew text come from?
The interlinear uses the SBLGNT for the New Testament Greek and the Westminster Leningrad Codex for the Old Testament Hebrew, with Strong's numbering and Dodson lexicon definitions. The Septuagint uses the Rahlfs-Hanhart edition.
