DR. V. GILBERT BEERS
(VBA Founder)

The purpose of The Visual Bible Alive Program is to help you return to Bible times and see things as they were culturally, integrated with Bible Book Chapter, Encyclopedia, Commentaries, Teaching Outlines, Dictionary, Bible Atlas through pictorial imagery. You will see clearly many hard-to-understand things in the Bible. To accomplish this, hundreds of archaeological photos were gathered from the great museums of the world. Many photo missions were taken to the holy land to gather first-hand information and pictures of the places which were important in the key events of the Bible. Dr. Beers has spent several decades thousands of hours of research focused on each facet of daily living in Bible times and the land of the Bible to assure an accurate presentation.

Book of Life (BOL Collection)

The Book of Life Program (BOL)
To many people the Bible is an ancient, mysterious book, written and compiled in lands and times far removed from modern life. The different cultures and customs of Bible people, and their lifestyles which contrast so sharply with ours, increase the mystery. The daily lives of Abraham and Jacob, for example, were quite different from ours. They lived in tents, roamed the land as nomads, and cared for sheep, goats, and camels as a career. Family structures, government, technology, sociological systems, economy of the land, and many other facets of life are contrasted with modern culture.
