Publisher's Description

From Moses to Gutenberg, easily find out how we got the Bible we have today and discover why we can trust it with this 6-session DVD study on the history of Bible! Dive into the fascinating stories of the people who risked their lives to print and distribute the Word of God (Tyndale, Wycliffe, etc). Perfect for personal or small group use.

Have you ever wondered where the Bible came from? Who wrote the books of the Bible? Perhaps you have been asked by a friend or coworker about books that were cut out of the Bible. Through the six sessions in this Bible history DVD, expert Dr. Timothy Paul Jones will guide you and your class through important questions about the Holy Bible to show you why it can be trusted. Packed with stunning visuals, dramatic stories, and illustrative animations, this exciting Bible History curriculum will take you from the earliest clay tablets and papyrus copies to the first bound Bible and the various Bible translations that we use today!

You don’t have to be an expert to lead this six-session study. Perfect for small groups, Bible studies, or personal use.

With this history of the Bible DVD study, you will discover:
  • 3 Ways the Bible is Unlike Any Other "Holy Book"
  • What it means when we say that the Bible is inspired and inerrant
  • What people did to preserve the text of the Bible over the centuries
  • How we know that the Old and New Testament are reliable
  • The stories behind names like John Wycliffe, William Tyndale, Gutenberg, and King James I
How We Got the Bible is an All-Inclusive Class on Bible History
  1. All-Inclusive. You don’t have to be an expert to lead this DVD. Includes everything you need to prep and take your group through this self-guided course.
  2. Simple Overview (Covers Over 3,500 Years). Teach your class or study group what biblical reliability means in six visual and easy-to-understand teaching videos, packed with key events and people to deepen your understanding of the history of the Bible.
  3. Solid Proofs. Easily compare today’s Bible with the Dead Sea Scrolls and many more early church records from past centuries to see how carefully the texts have been translated and recorded.
  4. Fascinating Stories. Sit back and take in the exciting stories of William Tyndale, the first century apostles, the Gutenberg printing press, and so much more!
