The Bible Project is a non-profit animation studio that produces short-form, fully animated videos to make the biblical story accessible to everyone, everywhere. They create videos, podcasts, and study guides that explore the Bible unified story. The videos may be particularly helpful aids for providing study groups or individuals with the big picture of a book or section of the Bible prior to reading.
