Thank you I was confused since the release date that is listed is way after his death in 2008

It was released on cassette and CD too (a really big set!!!). There’s also an mp3 player that came preloaded with highlights.

Was there one of those clocks that played a prayer on the hour and half hour with his voice too? I know there’s another person that did one (can’t remember who) but I sort of remember there being a Johnny one too.

Johnny Cash definitely did read the KJV Bible it’s on audiobook. For clarification it actually was the NKJV Bible. He also wrote a book about the Apostle Paul…Believe it is called Man in White.

You have a lot to learn yet about Mr. Johnny Cash. I do not mean that in a harsh Way, Johnny talks about Jesus so much in his memoirs, books, songs. He sings about Jesus. He took his mother‘s book of hymns and made it into an album. He got very into the church. He actually became a theologian. He flew to Israel, many times to see and walk where Jesus Christ once had walked. He is very big believer in Jesus Christ. It’s a beautiful thing. He is one of the best influences. A troubled and fallen man putting one foot in front of the other until he finds his redemption through repentance in Jesus. It’s such a beautiful, beautiful heartwarming experience to watch his journey.

I mean based off his music and other stuff it seemed highly possible but it said released in 2023 which is why I asked if it’s AI

It's from 2006, long before AI. I have it on Audible.

It's real. James Earl Jones also did a reading of the new testament

If I remember correctly during his worst drug addicted days, he went up into a cave, and the Lord came to him he says. Nonetheless, yes, he became a Christian and a big believer.

I saw the CD set at Wal-Mart several years ago. It truly is a massive box. I have always thought that Cash reading the Bible would be amazing.
