A Passage to Find.
A Narrative to Follow.
The first version is being developed around the King James text and Michael’s corresponding New Testament narrative. His sections may cover a whole chapter or a shorter passage, so a verse lookup will show the associated narrative section.
A free sample reader is available with six selected passages and no sign-in. The full subscription platform is not open for enrollment yet. Pricing, available content, and launch timing will be announced before paid subscriptions begin.

Spend Time With the Story.
Our discussions for the wider collection include narrated audio with atmosphere and sound, artwork and context linked from the printed page, and Spanish-language and other audience-specific editions.
The free sample reader already offers KJV, World English Bible, and Berean Standard Bible source texts. Additional licensed Bible versions may be explored for the full platform. Audio, translated editions, and print-linked features require production, editorial preparation, and funding; their release dates and inclusion in subscriptions are not yet confirmed.

Read All 20 Questions and Answers →Does It Replace or Claim to Improve on the Bible?
No. Michael always defers to the original KJV text as the canonical, authoritative source. His creative narrative interpretation accompanies the Scripture to encourage engagement with it. It does not replace or correct the Bible, claim greater accuracy, or present new revelation.
Why Include the Entire King James Text?
Keeping the source text present allows readers to compare the narrative directly with Scripture. The intention is to include the complete KJV across the finished series, rather than substitute a shortened retelling for the Bible. The New Testament is being prepared first; the Old Testament is planned. The series is not yet complete, and passage coverage and final volume divisions are still being checked.
How Does the Author Approach Narrative Detail?
Michael approaches each passage as a narrative writer. Scene-setting, dialogue, emotional perspective, and pacing form part of his creative interpretation. Where the narrative expands, condenses, or gives particular attention to a moment, that is a storytelling decision, rather than a commentary on what Scripture should say. These creative details belong to the companion narrative; the original KJV remains the canonical, authoritative source.
Is This Adding to God’s Word?
The intention is not to add words to Scripture or present the narrative as inspired revelation. It is a separate literary work alongside the biblical text. The original text remains intact as the source for the project, with the creative narrative identified separately. Readers and church leaders are invited to explore the samples and consider the approach within their own reading and study practices.
How Is the Book Meant to Be Used?
Read the KJV passage first, then the related narrative, then return to Scripture. Keep the original text as your point of reference as you explore the author’s creative interpretation. Use it for personal reflection or discussion alongside your usual Bible reading, prayer, and study.
When Can I Buy the Books?
