Interactive Episodes

Step inside the stories.

Every episode is built from real frames of our films — scroll-driven, scored, and faithful to the text. Read them like a book. Feel them like a movie.

Our Mission

Scripture deserves the screen it was written for.

For thousands of years the Bible has been passed on through word, print and paint. We believe the next chapter is animation — vivid, cinematic, and instantly understandable in any language, at any age.

Every book, faithfully

We animate the Bible book by book — Genesis to Revelation — staying true to the text, not a loose retelling of it. The scripture leads; the animation follows.

Cinema-grade animation

Character-driven 3D animation with consistent casts, real cinematography and a visual style built to stand beside major studio productions.

Free for the world

Every animation we release is free to watch and share. No paywall between anyone on Earth and the Word — that's the whole point.

The Roadmap

Three years in,
and just getting started.

We build in public — every milestone below is real, and the next ones are funded by the people watching. Here's the road from a single upload to the films the Bible deserves.

First sparks

The channel opens with short animated stories — Eden, Noah's Ark, the Tower of Babel, Jericho. Small films, one big lesson: the world wants scripture on screen.

2024–26 · Done

The world shows up

David & Goliath crosses seven million views. Samson, Job and Esther follow it into the millions — and a Spanish David y Goliat proves the stories cross languages as easily as borders.

Theatrical-quality films of the whole sweep of scripture — Genesis to Revelation — free for anyone on Earth to watch. That's the road. You're on it.

37 million views. 443,000 subscribers. One mission.

FAQ

Good questions, honest answers.

Is this faithful to the Bible?

Yes — that's non-negotiable. Every script is drawn directly from the text of the book being animated. Where scripture is silent on visual detail we make careful artistic choices, but we never rewrite the story, add doctrine, or soften what the text actually says.

Is it really free?

Completely. Watching and sharing our animations costs nothing and always will. The mission is reach, not revenue.

Who is it for?

Everyone — families, churches, schools, and anyone curious about the Bible. Animation crosses ages and languages like no other medium.

How is it made?

With modern 3D animation pipelines and a lot of craft: consistent character casts, storyboarded scenes, and cinematic shot-by-shot production.

What happens to donations?

They go directly into production — animating more books, at higher quality, faster. We publish what we're working on so you can see it.

Can my church or school use the animations?

Yes, and we'd love that — they're made to be shown. For screenings, curriculum use, or partnership, see our institutions page.
