The Picture Smart BIble

PictureThis! Ministries

The Picture Smart Bible is a unique tool for teaching the Bible to students from about fourth grade level through adults. In spite of the title , this is not a Bible but two books for learning about the Bible, one for the Old Testament and one for the New Testament. Each lesson teaches the entire story of one book of the Bible, or sometimes a group of books such as the minor prophets Hosea, Joel, Amos, and Obadiah. The New Testament book begins with an extra lesson, "The Bridge," covering the intertestamental period after Nehemiah. (Note that the deuterocanonical books of Maccabees cover some of this time period.)

The Picture Smart Bible probably works best in a classroom setting with an overhead projector, but it can also be used at home with one or two students. The unique aspect is that it teaches through drawing.
