HOW GOD PROMPTED
THIS BIBLE-ART SERIES

"The Bible comes alive so much more with all the

Through them the stories are crystallized in our minds."


”Reading the Bible, we meditate, we think deeply about faith and beliefs, we gain insights and, thanks to all these great artists, these paintings become visual teachings and a powerful companion to the Bible.”

Hard to get ahead of you...

[Hebrews 11:6]
