We Help People Experience the Bible as a Unified Story That Leads to Jesus (2024)

It Began With a Whiteboard, a Video, and a Love of the Bible

Tim Mackie and Jon Collins (long-time friends and one-time roommates at Multnomah University) were tossing around ideas about how to help people read through Scripture while avoiding the common pitfalls and misunderstandings. How could they present complex biblical themes in a way that was real and unapologetic but still approachable?

Combining Tim's deep biblical understanding and Jon's passion for visual storytelling, they created their first two videos in 2014 and put them online for free. Since then, we have released hundreds of videos, podcast episodes, and other resources, expanded into over 50 languages, and launched the BibleProject app. We want to help people everywhere become life-long students of Scripture.

When Translation Isn't Enough

We want to help people in every part of the world experience the Bible as a unified story that leads to Jesus. And when a video is translated with only subtitles, it can lose significant meaning and create cultural confusion.

Because of this, our Global team works with translators, voiceover artists, animation studios, language advisors, and quality control specialists around the world to produce fully-localized resources. We now have videos available in over 55 languages and dialects brought to life by passionate local teams through the generosity of our supporters.

Watch. Learn. Share. Repeat.

What kind of literature is in the Bible? Do Old Testament laws still matter? How does the book of Jonah point to Jesus? Our library of animated videos addresses all sorts of common—and not so common—questions about the Bible and includes overviews of every book in the Bible, major themes, visual commentaries, word studies, and more.

Each video is a short, visual explanation of how the Bible’s unified story points to Jesus. Take a deep dive into a topic, or start working your way through a series. Our videos are meant to be shared, pondered, watched, and re-watched.

The Journey Continues

We believe that Scripture’s story has the power to transform lives and communities, and we’re passionate about sharing that with our audience. Through the generosity of our supporters, our team is hard at work every day creating new resources to help people experience the Bible’s ancient story.

From videos and podcasts, to classes and playlists, we’re energized by reimagining how people can discover the beauty of the Bible from its first page to its last. We still can’t believe we get to do this work—and it feels like we’re just getting started.
