God's
truth was given to be experienced through our lives and relationships. The
Epic seeks to aid that process by inviting students to engage the scripture
in a graphical and audible way.
The Epic recaptures the Word of God in the words teens use today. It will give
a fresh perspective on the Bible, helping teens experience the same excitement
as was felt by its first readers. Even if teens have read passages hundreds of
times before, the words will come alive as if they are hearing them for the first
time.
It is not a study Bible, but rather an "experiential paraphrase."
The original books of the Bible were not written in formal language. There were
no verses, or chapters, to slow down the facinating process of hearing the truth.
Similarly, The Epic will facilitate a rhythmic and engaging experience of hearing
the Word. The Epic recaptures the Word in a language that teens use today.
