Well, we wrapped up the fourth “What’s in the Bible?” DVD, which takes us through the book of Ruth.  I’m now in the midst of writing DVD #5, covering the lives of Samuel, Saul, David and Solomon.  Fun stuff!  That one will come out in the Spring of 2011.  Response to the DVDs has been […]

Yeah, so I haven't blogged in a while.  Sorry about that, it's been a wild couple of weeks.
Three weeks ago I was in St. Louis for the big Christian booksellers convention.  The convention isn't as big as it used to be, since, well, there aren't as many Christian retailers as there used to be, but […]

So we're back from London!  Okay, we've been back for a few weeks, and I haven't given you an update lately because, well, I've been busy.  Darn busy.  But I thought I'd better give you an update before you all decide I must have disappeared in an ash cloud somewhere over Iceland.
London was great, and […]

Hey - the conversation about the Big Bang, etc. in the comments of my last post was very interesting!  Lots of opinions, lots of very bright people chiming in.  My favorite thing about the conversation is that it was entirely civil. No one lambasting anyone else for having a different opinion, which seems to me […]

If you've watched "What's in the Bible?" #1, you probably noticed that I made a very brief, joking reference to the "big bang theory" when we talk about Creation.  I've had a few fans write to complain about the joke, because they believe the big bang theory is anti-Christian, and therefore shouldn't be mentioned in […]

Hey ho - after much tweaking, What's in the Bible #3 has left the building!  It's off to the duplicators and should be in stores before Father's Day.  The fearsome beasts of Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy have been slayed, and, hopefully, rendered at least moderately understandable for kids!  (We'll see how that goes once they […]

Well, some of you may have been surprised walking into your local Christian bookstores over the last week to see Buck Denver's big face on a display full of brand new "What's in the Bible?" DVDs.  It seems the first batch of manufactured copies was sent out to stores more than a week ago, and […]
