BIBLE IN TEN
The first 64 episodes are from edited versions of some of the detailed Genesis sermons available at the SuperiorWord.org with the intention of making their content more accessible to a younger audience, using the International Children's Bible (ICB) text. In Feb 2021 we started an exciting daily commentary in the the book of Acts which took 3 years, during this time the children started adding their own reading of the verse, (ICB) which was being analysed. Since 2024 we have been going through the Gospel of Matthew verse by verse for the glory of God!
