We therefore decided to celebrate this Golden Jubilee of Bible work in a unique way by re-writing the ESV (English Standard Version) Bible with our own handwriting.
By doing this, we are trying to emulate the ancient scribes. Before modern technology came, scripture was written by scribes who copied from manuscripts.
If there hadn’t been people copying scripture, we most likely would not have the Bible now.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][slz_button btn=”%5B%7B%22layout%22%3A%22layout-1%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22TAKE%20PART%20NOW%22%2C%22button_link%22%3A%22url%3Ahttp%253A%252F%252Fdonate.biblesociety-uganda.org%252Fonetime-donation%252F%7C%7Ctarget%3A%2520_blank%7C%22%2C%22border_radius%22%3A%223%22%2C%22bg_color%22%3A%22%23f13e4b%22%2C%22btn_color%22%3A%22%23ffffff%22%2C%22icon_library%22%3A%22vs%22%2C%22icon_vs%22%3A%22fa%20fa-chevron-right%22%2C%22icon_position%22%3A%22right%22%7D%5D”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][slz_video_carousel list_video=”%5B%7B%22video_type%22%3A%22youtube%22%2C%22youtube_id%22%3A%22QFy8iPBYDLU%22%7D%2C%7B%22video_type%22%3A%22youtube%22%2C%22youtube_id%22%3A%22uacVTDP-W4I%22%7D%2C%7B%22video_type%22%3A%22youtube%22%2C%22youtube_id%22%3A%22meemwnpVBkw%22%7D%5D”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes”][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1482390142940{background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”2779″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css_animation=”fadeInLeft”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1482926747339{padding-top: 100px !important;padding-bottom: 100px !important;}”][slz_main_title style=”style-2″ extra_title=”Achieve” title=”What we hope to”][slz_tabs][vc_tta_section title=”Experience” tab_id=”1482389651533-1221073b-de99″][vc_column_text]We would like Ugandan Christians to get the feel of writing the Bible in their own handwriting.Feel like a scribe for a few minutes.
