Looking good guys.
I have Tetris on my phone and it’s kinda fun…..luv the entire idea
I love the video. The entire video series will obviously be awesome! Only 2 weeks left to wait to see the whole thing.
Praise God for His awesome faithfulness and the creativity He gives to His children.
My children love reading the Bible every night before bed.
I am so excited about this new tool to help my children learn God’s truth from the Bible in such a fun but real way!
My family purchased the first two DVDs as soon as they came out. We don’t have “television” (that it, we have a television but only hooked up to a DVD player — by design) and so we are always on the look out for quality DVDs for our kids. Well, actually, our daughter (4 1/2) as our son is only one. The 4 1/2 year old is like a sponge and often rambles off/acts out what she sees and hears. We were hoping the DVD would provide her with some good information about the Bible and in a way that would make it fun for her, and would “stick”. It is a little “old” for her as the pace moves really quick, but we figure with repetition and discussion it will end up a great resource. Love the mix of media approaches (puppets and cartoons) and the humor is funny (though some assumes a person agrees with contemporary culture to the point that you can make puns and parodies about it — we had to explain why the boy was watching a DVD in a car — something we have vowed never to do [we talk, and sing songs] and I believe there is a comment about American Idol [never watched it]). My daughter already remembers “there’s 66 books in the Bible” and “Genesis means ‘beginning’” after the first run through. And, our new favorite song is the theme song — and after singing it with her ending with an extended “WITH BUCK DENVERRRRRRRRRR!…” I am praying Phil can continue production of the whole set.
This looks incredible…can’t wait!!
Love, love, love the trailer…Can’t wait to get the dvds. I think our whole youth group needs to see these.
I agreee with and would bet on that they don’t get through Leviticus!!! Just too funny as I have been doing devotions daily in that Book and phew! can’t wait to move on to another book. God bless you and your work! I would love to offer up a traveling copy for our Pioneer club kids but I would wonder if that is ethical?
Hilarious, fast paced, informative fun! What a great way to teach Bible literacy to EVERY AGE 0 to 110 years old. I minister to high school and college age students many of them are not believers, yet they love Veggie Tale characters and are able to sing the songs. I can hardly wait until the teens see “What’s in the Bible?” All glory to our good God who blessed Phil Vischer and crew with much talent!
i teach kindergarten SS, i think the kids could get a lot of this. exciting tool.. maybe i could pass it on to the teens too !!
I can’t wait to order………yeh hah….
You had me at “Oh, for the love of Henrietta Mears!” I’m going to love this!
I am a Director of Education. I was excited to learn about a new DVD resource as the children and youth at my church seem burnt out on Veggie Tales. I continue to be disappointed with the role women/girls play in productions like these. Could not one of the “main characters” been female? I am now left to decide if i will use this resource for my classroom thus allowing the girls in my class to feel left out.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts … We are debuting a new girl character, Marcy, in DVD 3 and hopefully she will alleviate some of your concerns!
I cannot wait for a curriculum to go with this set of info-packed DVDs! My whole family enjoyed watching this (grades 4 – 11), and all voted it the next curriculum we should do with our kids’ ministry on Sunday mornings. I direct the K – grade 5 program — we are presently meeting in a theatre, so the DVD format is perfect — and have been looking for something like this for several years now. This is too fantastic not to use! Don’t know if I can do it justice, but I think I would try to set up curriculum around it if there is nothing in the works from Phil Vischer. God bless you with all the creative energy and resources you need to complete this project!! And please, if there is anything to go with this set of DVDs, please let me know!
This looks like a super series and can’t wait to possibly use it as our homeschooling Bible curriculum. One aspect I’ve noticed about most church Sunday School curricula is a a real lack of ethnic diversity. Our adopted daughter is African-American, and I rarely see main characters that represent her skin color, voice intonation, hair style, etc.
Love this intro. Especially like the blue haired lady who says, “Five bucks says they don’t make it past Leviticus.” hahaha
I’m a Bible lover, and love to teach my boys the entire book, not the same old tired stories they’ve heard over and over.
Phil, I think you’re awesome.
LOV it!its sooooooo funny!i want it to stay that way. Sincerly,wesli
