Though audio has many advantages, most people don\u2019t view it as a replacement for reading Scripture but rather as a complement. Reeves notes that reading in print is better for in-depth study, since it allows the reader to make cross-references and to stop and reflect on what they\u2019re reading.<\/p>\n
Comprehension of the text overall isn\u2019t necessarily impacted by the format. While some studies have found that reading has a slight edge over audio, most experts agree that any comprehension gap that might exist is minimal.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wouldn\u2019t want people to feel that reading is good and audio is a poor substitute. I think audio adds something, which is really beneficial,\u201d Reeves said. \u201cBut I\u2019d equally want to say that audio alone won\u2019t give you what you can get if you\u2019re also able to read and study and push deeper. A combination of the two is a wonderful opportunity. Let\u2019s realize both offer something. Let\u2019s try to get the best of both worlds.\u201d<\/p>\n
