    Children's Bible Shows

    I also remember that show. It was on TBN on Saturdays. On Saturdays, they would show kids Bible shows on TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network) I think that was the Greatest Adventures In The Bible, which I have said before haven’t really watched much of. It sure is. I think the latest is...

    Children's Bible Shows

    I actually don't have any kids of my own, but I've been in children's ministry. But I think you do have a point about waiting until a child is about 5 or 6 to show a show like that. But I guess when it comes to children's Bible shows, much like Hollywood's attempt to make Bible films, you'd...

I've...

    Does a book series have to be written or published in chronological order?

    That’s true they weren’t. Though it’s been renumbered chronologically, Narnia fans still prefer to read them in publication order. The first 4 books are original stories, the 5th is a midquel or side story, the 6th is a prequel, and the 7th is a sequel. Prequels have been very popular (even in...

    Does a book series have to be written or published in chronological order?

    Well, of course, in a series, it kind of gives you time to get to know the characters. A trilogy, with notable examples like Lord of the Rings, is kind of a way you get to know the main characters. Sometimes there's a trilogy, sometimes there are seven or eight or six or 5 or 10 or 12 books...
