Both a matter of pleasure for gardeners and pain for sufferers from rheumatism. "Rank and riches" (breeches) So, ironically, Soederberg's attempt to popularise the Bible by getting away from its traditional format is exactly what the people who created that format were doing. This less-than-reverent online version by Brendan Powell Smith tells stories from the Bible using Lego. It started life in 2001 with stories from Genesis and today contains 391 stories with 4,214 illustrations. Though it is sometimes satirical or tongue-in-cheek, it is often used by churches and Sunday schools, and it's one of the versions that the Bible Society has welcomed as connecting people with the Bible in a new way.

He, however, welcomes it with open arms. "You have to understand that what we think of as the traditional serious-looking leather-bound Bible is actually a relatively new format. In the Middle Ages, picture books - with people in contemporary dress - were the way most people read the Bible. The rhyming slang version of the Bible was written by Mike Coles, an RE teacher in Stepney, and started life as stories he told to his classes.

Of course there is nothing wrong with 'translating' the Bible for different sub-cultures... this is after all what Christians have always done. It is just now we can add a glossy finish :o) No matter how you present it in the end and to who the message is still the same and will never change; its always relevant! As bees are the epitome of work, work produces money, the possession of which is sweet. "Borrow and beg" (egg) The publicity for me was just all great fun, and the kids loved it as well, with lessons being filmed, children being interviewed... and then the book was finally published there was even more publicity. I remember being well looked after by Karen Laister from BRF. As I say, I just found the whole time such fun.
