However, I'm not a big fan of reading or listening to someone speaking for lengths of time. Does anyone know of some alternative resources? For example, comics, visual novels or online movies?

I know a great church I listen to and watch at times, it's not very lengthy, only about 35 min. If you go to youtube type: "pastor James Watts Grandview Church" and you'll see a bunch of his videos come up. He's the most Holy Spirited preacher I've ever heard (in my opinion).

The Living Bible - Pro’s and con’sAs with any paraphrase, putting the Bible "in your own words" runs the risk of enabling your own biases, thoughts, and preferences to influence what the Bible says. This is impossible to avoid. The primary problem of any paraphrase of the Bible is that it inputs far too much of a person's opinion of what the Bible says, instead of simply stating what the Bible says. There is nothing inherently wrong with a paraphrase, as long as users of the paraphrase understand exactly what it is - not a Bible translation, but rather an interpretation/commentary on what the Bible says.Read more:http://www.gotquestions.org/The-Living-Bible-TLB.html#ixzz3XKItDAqq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you speaking about the bible? Or something else? I was talking about a book which is "The Case For Christ" by Lee Strobel.It is good for those who want to see what Christ is all about.

God has provided you with one solid resource -- the Holy Bible. To build your relationship with Him, read and meditate on the Psalms, since they are meant to communicate with God. If you would rather not read, you can get an audio Bible. Make sure you get the King James or Authorized Version. In addition to that get Nave's Topical Bible (KJV) where all Scriptures pertaining to any topic in the Bible are gathered together to help you grasp the subject. Why do I recommend the KJV? Because all modern versions are based upon corruptions of the Bible text. Enough said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
