About Watchword Productions
The
first true Video Book, The WatchWORD Bible is a God-given vision to
impact the world through the power of God’s Word - on
video!
In 1991, the year the Internet was
born, Jim Fitzgerald had an unexpected vision for a whole new way to
present God’s Word on screen. Late one night at the
end of a
three day fast, he outlined how the entire Bible could be produced in a
compelling way on video for the first time - to reach millions
of
people around the world.
Amazed at what the Lord had shown him, he promised to devote his life
to this vision if it were God’s will. Yet, he had
no idea
how difficult producing The WatchWORD Bible would prove to be.
At first, producers told him it would be technologically
impossible. But, even if he could produce it, they said no
one
would ever watch it; and he’d never raise the funds for such
an
extensive production anyway.
Yet, he believed in the supreme importance of God’s word as
the
essential foundation for any genuine revival. Jesus had said,
“Go into all the world and make disciples…teaching
them to
do all that I have commanded you” (Matt.
28:19-20). All that He had commanded was
to be found
only in the Bible.
The Bible was essential to carrying the Great Commission and living the
Christian life. Yet, biblically illiteracy only continued to
grow, though the Bible was an inexpensive commodity and aggressive
Bible translation had been underway for 30 years. This
inspired
book often sat unused on people’s shelves and failed to keep
pace
with the use of electronic media. Many people said they were
too
busy to read the Bible or it was too difficult to understand.
Today, The WatchWORD Bible® is a reality. A decade in
the
making, the entire New Testament can be watched word for word on
video. Its timely creation coincides with an unparalleled
explosion in digital media distribution, from Satellite TV, Digital
Cable, and DVDs, to iPods, Cell Phones and of course, the
Internet.
