Bring to life the world’s first
Video Bible
Cover-to-cover and free for all
35 million people are dyslexic.
That means nearly 1/3 of the population has limited or no access to a written Bible.
How will they grow in the Lord?
In a world of digital media,
a physical Bible can get neglected.
Nowadays, when we need instructions, we’re less likely to sift through piles of instruction manuals. Instead, we search YouTube to find a how-to video.
It’s clear that, for many of us, when we see it helps us understand.
That’s why we’re creating The Video Bible. When completed, it will be the world’s first cover-to-cover, audio + visual representation of the entire Bible that makes interacting with God’s word as easy as opening an app and pressing play.
When the Bible was first printed, the spread of the Gospel grew by leaps and bounds. Studies show that when audio is combined with the visual, people retain up to 65% more. How much more will the Gospel grow with greater on-ramps to God’s Word in a format that is easier to access and retain?
The Video Bible will make it easier for all to engage with Scripture.
Here’s how you can help.
Together, we can bring to life the Video Bible.

The mere concept of The Video Bible is creating waves of hope for those desperate to have it.
“When I got older, it was harder for me to sit down and focus. The Video Bible will help me tremendously with that. It will be so nice to see the Bible come to life.”
– Kat Coleman
“This will have a dramatic spiritual impact on my daughter who has dyslexia because she has never been able to interact with the written word.”
– Jessie Ryan
“The artwork from this project will greatly further my ministry efforts in the Congo as it will for other missionaries around the world.”
– Tim Hunter, SIL / Wycliffe Bible Translators
The artwork is breathtaking.

Frequently Asked Questions
How will you raise the money?
With over 1,000 donors giving $25/month, we can produce the Video Bible. Because we believe God has ordained this mission, we are trusting for the provision to complete. Currently, we have 102 monthly donors. Would you please consider donating so we can get to 1000 monthly donors?
Here are exciting things God has already done:
- We have hard-to-get traction with Bible publishers, including a licensing commitment from Biblica (the nonprofit Bible division of Zondervan) to use the NIV audio Bible, narrated by Max McLean.
- We have highly talented artists devoted to the project.
- We have a Google grant of $12,000 per month in ad credits.
- And, we have a commitment from The Gospel Coalition to share The Video Bible with their audience.
How quickly will you be able to produce the entire Bible?
We will work through the Bible as quickly as possible, starting with the Book of James in one year, followed by the rest of the Gospels, then the remainder of the New Testament, and finally, the Old Testament. Our primary focus is on producing the books of the Bible that introduce Jesus to the world, which we believe we can accomplish in 7.5 years once fully funded.
How will you distribute the Bible and will there be a cost to it?
As The Video Bible is created, it will be available on YouTube, YouVersion, and The Video Bible app. As a monthly donor, you’ll receive early access and can help test user-friendliness. The Video Bible will be free to access and the only cost will be that to create it which you can help fund.
Are you trying to replace the written Word?
What are your doctrinal standards?
We believe in the full deity and full humanity of Jesus Christ, in his virgin birth, his sinless life, his miracles, his substitutionary and atoning death for our sins, his bodily resurrection, his ascension to the right hand of God the Father, his present rule over and intercession for the Church, and his future visible return in power and glory.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, whose work of regeneration is essential for salvation. By the Spirit’s sanctifying power, which indwells all believers in Christ, we are enabled to live godly lives of worship and service.
If people aren’t reading the Bible, we have a responsibility to ask “Why?”
As Christians, we want the whole world to know and love Jesus like we do. But, when the Bible is more accessible than ever before and it’s still not being consumed at an equivalent pace, how can we make more of an impact?

Our goal is to meet people where they are. To deliver the Bible in the form of media that today’s society is most used to consuming. A video + audio representation that makes God’s Word accessible enough to put on during the drive home from school, to be watched while fitting in a walk on the treadmill, or to be played before the evening meal.
Truth is – people don’t read the Bible for lots of reasons. Some are visual learners and the written Bible feels too complex, others struggle with dyslexia or impaired vision, while others around the world don’t have a written language at all.
No matter the reason, lives are at stake. And, together, we can help.
With a gift of $25/month, you can spread the hope of Jesus in a refreshingly practical way.
