"The role of women in the Bible has been a universal source of discussion for generations. The Abrahamic faiths which emerged from ancient biblical history have turned to the scriptures for advice and role models for women's behaviors and purpose. In fact, the scriptures have recorded guidelines defining these things. Viewed through the lens of culture, some writers have attempted to interpret significance of the scripture lessons and stories about women in relationship to current events. For some, the ancient stories no longer reflect the woman of today. Feminist viewpoints have explored the value of supposed freedoms, and certainly dealt headfirst with issues previously unspoken. Women have indeed suffered through cultural expectations which have produced mental, emotional, physical and sexual abuse, slavery, marginalization, and a host of social ills. But, the truth is that the scriptures are the source for understanding how God would have his womanly creation live life to the fullest."

WTB_Mark is a ground-breaking stage adaptation of Mark's Gospel in two Acts, based on Steve Cook's audio recording, Witness the Bible: Mark.

It is prop-less with a very simple set and costumes and runs about 90 minutes with one intermission. It is designed to replicate what Bible study must often have been like in the 1st century Church, when most believers were illiterate.

The books of Genesis, Jubilees, and Jasher contain largely the same narrative, with the Genesis account of the Bible ending roughly at Jubilees 46:8 and at Jasher 59:28. However, the latter two books also include several striking deviations from Genesis which are quite revealing from a biblical standpoint. We believe that hearing them in this type of synchronized format allows for much more clarity in terms of perceiving both subtle and overt differences in the three narratives.

The Revised Geneva Translation is a 21st century update of the very first widely-distributed version of the Holy Bible in English, The Geneva Bible.
