BIBLE NARRATION LICENSE

Watchman 33 offers its published KJV chapter narration freely so the Word of God can be heard and shared.

OUR PURPOSE

THE WORD IS NOT OURS
TO KEEP TO OURSELVES.

Watchman 33 paid to produce and review these recordings, but our purpose is not to place another barrier between people and Scripture. We want individuals, churches, ministries, and creators to be able to carry the message farther.

GIVE CREDIT.
MARK YOUR CHANGES.
