The Book of Joshua: Word for Word Bible Comic

Using a bold contemporary art style, the comic presents every word of the biblical Book of Joshua, within its historical, cultural and geographical context.

It employs a high view of scripture and the translation used is the World English Bible. Aimed primarily at adults and young adults, but suitable for ages 15+.

The Story: God's holy nation stands at the very brink of the promised land, but before them lies a seemingly insurmountable task. They must take cities said to be walled up to heaven and defended by giants in a land that devours its own people. The conquest may seem impossible, even suicidal, but after escaping from slavery through a parted sea and living on manna from heaven, warlord and prophet, Joshua is ready to place the fate of his people and himself in God's hands.

ENDORSEMENTS: "Very interesting. As clear a readable rendition of the Bible as I have seen. Makes biblical teaching more accessible to young and old alike." -John Wagner, Co-creator of Judge Dredd.

"Indeed, one might argue that The Word for Word Bible Comic is actually a more authentic presentation of the Bible than our bare printed texts, which invite us to fill a visual vacuum by supplying pictures in our own imagination of people and events." - Rev Dr Christopher R. Smith (Author of "Understanding the Books of the Bible" Study Guides from IVP. Doctorate in Historical Theology and the Bible.)
