    Who Wants to Be Among the First to Experience The Bible in a Radically Different Way? Connect with God and Understand YOUR Role in His Plan with the “The Bible Experience” My Gift to YOU This Christmas Season Dear________ Now, don’t be concerned that you will need to READ the entire New Testament in order to be positioned for this miracle blessing. You do not READ this amazing new version of Scripture, you LISTEN to it! I have been extremely privileged to be called upon and appointed by Zondervan Publishers, the largest publishers of the Bible in the world, to be the voice of the Holy Spirit in a new multimedia presentation of the Bible called, “The Bible Experience!” I am joined by over 100 other African-Americans in producing this dramatic re-enactment of the Scriptures in the Bible: Blair Underwood, Angela Bassett, Cuba Gooding Jr., Samuel L. Jackson, Yolanda Adams, LeVar Burton, and Tisha Campbell Martin just to name a few! While we were in production on this masterful new version of the Bible, I had a private moment with Levar Burton… This is what he told me: “My work on this Bible Experience project is among the most gratifying in my career. I feel so Blessed to be a part of this and share God’s Word in a way that will change families. “ “The Bible Experience” is in today’s contemporary language, using the New International Version of the Bible. It comes in an amazing CD set and has just been released by Zondervan. Many expect it to top the charts and provide an even greater blessing to millions the world over.

"There is a great industrial story of days and nights and months and years behind the manner in which Dr. Kalmus and his associates have boosted the quality and service of color to the industry, beaten down the price step by step, and maintained a great spirit of cooperation with production and exhibition.

D OMESTIC box office standings take on values in this year of vanished foreign markets that are tremendous in importance. They are the only ratings that mean anything to the producer, director, player, and exhibitor. Gone—at least for years to come—are the days when known box office failures in the American market could be pushed to fabulous income heights and foisted on the suffering American exhibitor because of a shadowy "for¬ eign value.” Gone are the days—and we hope forever—when producers could know¬ ingly, and with "malice aforethought,” set out on the production of top budgetted pictures that would admittedly have no appeal to American mass audiences, earn no dimes for American exhibitors. All because of that same shadowy foreign market. ^ ^ So THE DIGEST ANNUAL comes to you at an opportune time.
