TV series will offer unique opportunity to talk about the Bible

‘The Bible’ is an epic TV mini–series which will be broadcast on Channel 5 this December, followed by a release on Blu–ray & DVD by Fox.

This is a unique opportunity to help the church to reach out to everyone in the community – especially those who don’t normally read the Bible or join with the local church.

To help, Damaris has created an official Souvenir Guide which explores themes such as Faith & Life, Choices & Consequences and Forgiveness & Transformation – and is designed to stimulate discussion about the Bible.

“Each day we hear inspirational examples of churches planning to make the most of this opportunity,” says Alice Mortimore from ‘The Bible’ UK team. “Here are just some of them…

  • Giving one to every home in the parish

  • Each church member holding dinner parties for friends, using the Souvenir Guide to stimulate discussion

  • Giving one to everyone who attends the Christmas services

  • Giving one to parents of pupils in the local school

  • Church members buying quantities on a Sunday, praying together about who they will give them to, and giving them to their friends, neighbours and work colleagues through the week
