A 10 Hour BIble

It's been about a year since I was introduced to the Bible Project www.thebibleproject.com .  As a teen comic collector and fan of comic art this graphical web based narrative of the Bible was an immediate hit with me.  

Timothy Mackie and Jonathan Collins are God inspired and gifted to put each book of the Bible (and other narrative series and themes) in 8 minute YouTube summaries that help a novice (and even experts) understand the timeless complexity of an interweaved unified story.

Now anytime I begin to read a book of the bible - I pop over to this website to watch the 8 minute summary prior to reading that book myself.  I even bought the coffee table book that has all the final artwork - what a conversation starter.

If you sat down and watched each book of the Old Testament it would take 5 Hrs and 24 minutes;  The New Testament 4 Hrs and 34 minutes.  WOW - The Entire Bible in 10 hours!

Mom reluctantly permitted comic books in her house - the Bible Project would have convinced her that any media that ignites the Holy Spirit is glorious.  She is smiling now about my love of comics.
