Hi, my name's Kevin.
I'm a Poet & former Youth Leader, but you can call me...
The Bible Artist
I believe the Arts can give us fresh eyes to see the significance of the Bible and the beauty of the Gospel.
I also believe the Bible can provide the arts with complex characters and stories with profound insight into the human condition.
Join me as I explore biblical adaptations like The Chosen and seek to cultivate greater appreciation for creativity, the arts, and adaptation within the Christian community.
