Museum Of The Bible
Recently I was browsing YouTube and came across this 6 part video series (click here) describing how the museum came about and what is located on each of the eight floors. I was very impressed with the state of the art technology and that this museum is located in the Capitol of the USA.
Click here for the museums website, click here for the Museum of the Bible YouTube channel, and here for a fact sheet listing the numbers and timeline of the museum.
For you home school moms, check out the Augmented Reality Technology curriculum for the Bible. It is awesome and will definitely engage your children. Go to the MOB home page, scroll down to the "A museum and much more! " section. Then scroll over to the Education page. You can then watch a video or learn more.
This museum has something for everyone from a children's section that has a life size Goliath, to the high tech "envelope" elevators and theater where the walls and ceiling digitally change according to floor you are going to, or what is playing at the theater.
As I discovered and browsed each link above, I was moved to tears. With so much chaos, division, and tragedy in the world, the opening of this new museum of God's word has been a breath of fresh air to my spirit. We are hoping to visit it sometime during this holiday season. May your spirit be blessed today as well, and that blessing overflow to bless others In Jesus Name!
