We love this great new CURRICULUM KIT! It fills a real need. There are a lot of Christians today who know very little about the Bible. This carefully designed series assumes they know nothing—starts at the beginning—and quickly builds an understanding of what the Bibe is all about, how we got it, and how to use it. Launch your group on a lifetime learning adventure! 4-week or 8-week program.

Positive—We use the film series “Discovering the Bible” for outreach with international students. The series is excellent! It gives a documentary explanation about the Bible—of what it is and why it is important. There are many helps for doing an introductory series with those who have never been exposed to the Bible.

However, since we are serving English Second Language students, it would be an urgent and welcome addition to have the English subtitles, so that the message would be reinforced. I think that most of them miss the meaning because of the ESL. The other possibility is to have it dubbed in their language (mostly Mandarin).
