Why is the THE BIBLE IN LIVING SOUND only audio and not animated?
The producer of THE BIBLE IN LIVING SOUND felt strongly that after reading the Bible or hearing the audio Bible stories, that each person has their own idea of what Moses looked like, what it was like to see ravens feeding Elijah, what Queen Esther was experiencing as she went before the king and what it could have been like for Jesus as He carried His own cross. The Holy Spirit works on each person's heart to understand what God is impressing upon each of us. To animate a Bible story puts an artist's idea or view of that Biblical person into another person's mind and imagination. Through the power of reading the Bible and listening to the Bible stories, the Holy Spirit moves the listener's heart for them to understand what God wants them to learn and know.
