My view on it:
Our culture has been completely cut off from the Bible. If you asked people on the street to tell you about a story in the Bible, they might be able to say the words “Noah’s Ark”, but that’s about it.
For there to be a huge exposure to the Bible is a good thing. But people will pick and argue about the little things. The phrase “you can’t see the forest for all of the trees” comes to mind.
Putting the Bible into people’s minds, even if it isn’t 100% accurate, is better than not exposing them to it at all. If 1% of the 13.1 millions people were to pick up a Bible to read the stories that were touched on in the series, then I think it’s wonderful!
I wrote a book called “Bible Stories for Grown-Ups” just for people who do not have any idea what fabulous stories are in the Bible. And if people will learn about the stories of the Bible whether by reading or watching, then it is seeds being planted in their souls. The Holy Spirit can then work in them.
