Our Bible Highlighted At General Conference


On October 3, 2009, during the United Pentecostal Church's General Conference in St. Louis, MO, our handwritten Bible was highlighted during the Youth Division Service by Shay Mann, General Youth President. It received a standing ovation and several churches contacted me to find out more about it. Hopefully many more will follow our lead and write their own Bible. It's all for the Glory of Jesus Christ!


Write it! Learn it! Live it!

It Is Finished!!!

5 months and 1 day after the challenge was issued, the entire hand-written King James Version of the Bible was placed on the altar during Youth Service tonight, September 30, 2009!

58 people joined together to accomplish this great challenge! So far, over $1,500 has been raised through sponsorship.

Jim Bodenhammer of KTLO interviewed me today and plans to run a story this coming Sunday.

I am extremely proud of all of those who had a hand in making this dream a reality!

We will be taking the Bible to General Conference this weekend in St. Louis, MO, for the General Youth Division Service this Saturday at noon.

We wrote it! We are learning it! We are living it!

May the blessings of the Lord be upon all those who WROTE THE BIBLE!

98% complete!

With only 2 days left until our deadline, we are 98% complete! I fully expect everything to be completed by Youth Service this Wednesday night.

I can't wait to see all 5 binders placed on the altars and then listen to the chains break as Jesus promised!

"Thy Word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against You!"

Write it! Learn it! Live it!

Tonight, we are sitting in the life center fellowship hall at Joelle and Charity's graduation party...and folks are taking advantage of this time to write their portion of the Bible. This is definately a group effort!
