The New Testament Experience: The Gospels for the Modern World

by Carlos Darby (Author), Abrupt Media (Author)

Synopsis

This visually striking book was developed for the modern consumer of visual content. Using the ESV translation alongside powerful images, it facilitates an enduring engagement with the scriptures as the reader experiences the stories and lessons contained within, in a fresh and relevant way.

The New Testament Experience: The Gospels for the Modern World is about bringing the scriptures to life for a visual generation and exploring the life of one of the most recognisable names in human history: Jesus Christ. Though the accounts of Jesus were written some 2000 years ago, today millions seek to know Jesus through reading the Bible. Over the centuries these scriptures, alongside the use of art such as stain-glass windows and paintings, have engaged an audience by communicating the vivid stories and themes found in the Bible. Jesus himself taught using parables, stories designed to teach the listener and introduce them to the ways of God's Kingdom, creating a mental picture the listener could relate and respond to.
