Biblefresh

Went to the London launch yesterday of Biblefresh, the name for an initiative aimed to tie in with the fact that next year is the 400th anniversary of the King James Version of the Bible, with all the influence that has had on English language, literature and culture. The aim of the initiative is partly to re-enthuse Christians for the Bible, and partly to provide a platform for others to engage at a variety of levels with the Bible too. The beauty of it is that the outworking will be locally-driven; it's not about following a centrally dictated programme. It all has potential certainly. How it works will depend on what individual churches make of it.
