Throughout history and at pivotal moments, the Bible has been translated, updated and revised to speak to the culture and times of that period. 

​

Between 1100 and 1600, "illumuniated manuscripts" illustrated the Bible's texts to add a visual element describing the stories on the pages. 

​

During the age of cathedrals, stained glass windows were dazzling examples of artistic renderings of Scripture so that even the illiterate population of the day could experience the Bible's message.

​

Artists across history have painted, sculpted and etched the most important narratives of the Bible, inspiring generations and inviting them into the pages of God's Word. 

​

Today, engagement with the Bible is on a steep decline. Perceived relevancy is plummeting, and Bible literacy is at an all-time low. 

​

At the same time, we live in a world where artistic expression is exploding. The opportunity and availability to create is immense. 

​

We believe we're at another pivotal moment in history. 

​

We are inviting artists to create expressive art as they engage with Scripture, and inviting people everywhere to experience the Bible through the lens of that art.
