Maybe This Has Been Your Experience

• At the beginning of the new year, you have a goal of reading the whole Bible. That’s a great resolution! You start at the book of Genesis…no problem! You move on to Exodus…no problem! Then you get to Leviticus…problem. As you read through the pages, it feels like walking through mud. You decide to skip the Old Testament and just stick to the New Testament…for now.

• As you read through the book of Matthew, you learn a great deal about Jesus. Then you get to the next book…Mark. But wait…it sounds a lot like Matthew…why the same stories? But since it’s a short book, you finish it. Then you get to Luke…and it sounds like the same stories…again! What’s the deal?

• You’re sitting in church and the pastor’s message is about battling your fears. He quotes a verse from First John…and you try to look up the verse in the Bible…where is that? Then he talks about Joshua and his army. Wait, is that in the Old or New Testament? Then he closes with a verse from Philippians…or did he say Philippines?

• You’re driving home from work and you tune in to the local Christian radio station. The speaker is talking about the great heroes of the faith…Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; Deborah and Gideon; David; Ruth and Esther; Ezra and Nehemiah. And as you’re driving, you’re scratching your head, thinking, “I’m a Christian…shouldn’t I know who these people are…but I have no clue except for maybe Abraham and David.”

And these scenarios doesn’t happen once or twice in your life…they happen often and you’re frustrated.

• You’ve probably heard these names from the Bible: David & Goliath, Joseph & Potiphar’s wife, Jesus & His disciples, Samson & Delilah.

• You’ve probably heard these stories from the Bible: The Ten Commandments, Noah’s Ark, Paul’s Missionary Journeys, the Walls of Jericho.

• And you’ve probably heard these places in the Bible: Jerusalem, Egypt, Jericho, Israel.

But How Do They All Fit Together?

• You want to be able to open your Bible and know the major people, places, and events.

• You want to understand the storyline from the first book of the Bible to the last.

• You want to feel confident when opening the Bible, not confused, lost, or frustrated.

• You want to know the big picture of the Bible so the details can be understood.

When you listen to a pastor or Bible teacher or small group leader, they sound like they’ve pored over the Bible for hours and hours.

But You Don't Have That Kind of Time

• You need something that will help you understand the Bible quickly.

• You need something that will break the Bible down into edible chunks, not too small where there’s no substance but not too big that you choke.

• You need something that will give you the ability to approach the Bible with confidence so that you are not dependent on someone else.

As I’ve met eager Christ-followers, many of them have a hunger for the Bible but not everybody understands it. Some are intimidated. Some are scared. Some have given up. But once they understand a few keys to the Bible, it begins to make sense and they approach the Bible with confidence, clarity, and celebration because the Bible comes alive!

I want to help you learn the Bible…FAST!

How Can I Do This?

Hi, my name is Gary Lau.

Like you, I struggled to understand the Bible. Although I’ve read the Bible many times from Genesis (the first book) to Revelation (the last book), I was still confused.

But over time, after going to different classes and seminars, reading many books, and studying the Bible day and night, I could slowly understand the Bible. Over the past few years, I’ve taken what I’ve learned and condensed it so you can learn the Bible easily and quickly.

“This course is a fun and creative way to learn the overview
of the Bible.”

“Gary is a gifted teacher of the Bible and has a real passion for sharing the gospel of Christ.”

Why Is This Course Effective?

It’s quite simple. It’s so simple that I wish I stumbled upon it sooner. It’s by using simple symbols. Symbols are an effective way to communicate something. We’re used to seeing symbols all the time. If you see a golden M when passing a fast-food area, you know it’s McDonald’s. Or if you see a swish on athletic wear, you know it’s Nike. When you see a symbol, you know what they represent. So I created 100 symbols for the major people, places, and events of the Bible.

And here’s something I discovered by using symbols…

• It can be used across generations. I had students from middle to high school understanding God’s Word. I had parents going home and teaching their children the Bible using symbols. I had retirees learning the Bible in a new way.

• It can be used multi-culturally. I had students from Venezuela, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, China, Denmark, and Japan understanding the Bible because they could understand the symbols. Then some of my students went to the Philippines and Myanmar and successfully taught it there.

• It can be used quickly. Symbols are like pictures…once you see it, you grasp it quickly…and it can communicate so much at one time.

Imagine learning the Bible creatively

Imagine learning the Bible visually

Imagine learning the Bible differently

Who Is This Course For?

This course is for you, if you meet any of these criteria:

• You want an overview of the people, places, and events of the Bible to get a better grasp of the Bible.
You’ve probably heard different names from the Bible: Abraham, Joshua, Solomon, Nehemiah. You’ve probably heard different places: Canaan, Mount Sinai, Assyria, Persia. You’ve probably heard different stories: Tower of Babel, the Passover, Babylonian Captivity, Pentecost. Learning the 100 great events of the Bible will give you the cohesive story of how all the people, places, and events fit together.

• You’re reading through the Bible and you need markers to help guide you.
You started at Genesis, you made your way through Exodus, but you’re getting confused at Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. If you know the major events, you know what to look for and why they’re important. Having the 100 great events of the Bible laid out chronologically will give you signposts that will keep you moving forward.

• You want to understand the Bible quickly with just enough content so you can confidently open your Bible.
By having the Bible broken down into 100 symbols, you don’t get overwhelmed with all the details. At the same time, it’s not so broad that you miss any of the major markers. It’s not too big, it’s not too small, it’s just right.

• You are a small group leader, Sunday School teacher, or homeschool teacher and need a tool so your teaching can have more impact.
You have been given the responsibility to teach something from the Bible but you feel inadequate because you know so little about scripture and you may also feel scared because someone may ask you a question about the Bible. When you understand the big picture of the Bible, you can dig into God’s Word to mine its details and help others understand the Bible.

“The class was easy to understand and organize in my mind.
It was a road map to the Bible.”

“I knew all the events of the Bible but not the order. Thank you for connecting the dots for me!”

What's Included in This Program?

It’s exciting to know that the Bible can be understood. You CAN approach the Bible with confidence. You CAN understand the major people, places, and events.

What’s included in the 100 Great Events of the Bible program?

• You’ll receive lifetime access to all 100+ video lessons that spans not only the Old and New Testaments, but the period between the testaments known as the 400 Years of Silence. Each lesson will show you how to draw a symbol that represents the event and then you will learn the importance of that event.

• You’ll receive a downloadable PDF workbook that has all the worksheets to draw the 100 symbols.

• You’ll receive access to a private Facebook group so you can share your successes, ask your questions, and suggest ideas.

What technology will I need for this program?
You’ll need internet access because all the videos are online. You’ll also need a printer to print out the PDF workbook.

How long is the program?
There is no fixed time in which you have to complete the program. You can go as fast or as slow as you want. There are over 100 videos to go through; the shortest video is about a minute and the longest video is under five minutes. And you have lifetime access to the videos.

But Wait! I Can't Draw!

During this course we will be drawing simple shapes like circles, triangles, arrows, and lines to communicate the different events. Studies have shown that drawing simple pictures impacts and enforces one’s learning.

I will be guiding you every step of the way. Don’t worry if your circle isn’t perfect or if your line isn’t straight. It’s about the idea, not the art.

You’re not being graded and you won’t be asked to turn anything in, but by the end, I believe you’ll be proud of what you’ve accomplished.

It's about the idea, not the art.

Here's How Simple It Is

You Do Have Other Options

• Option 1: You could enroll in a Bible institute or college
When you enroll in some type of educational institution, you have to go through an application process. For a Bible institute, it’s fairly quick. But if you are enrolling in an accredited institution, the application process is long. Then once you are accepted, you typically have to go through a course that will span a quarter or semester. Each class means an investment of 2-3 hours per week, not including the time it takes to drive to and from class.
Total Cost: $50-$1200
Total Time: 8-15 weeks, 2-3+ hours/week

• Option 2: You could take a different online course
There are several online platforms where you can search for Bible courses: Udemy, CreativeLive, Treehouse, Teachable. These courses can cost anywhere from free to $200. But the courses are one-way, meaning there’s no interaction between you and the instructor. It’s very static, not dynamic. You watch the video, maybe do some work which is never evaluated, then watch the next video. What if you have questions about a topic? What if you get a great insight, how can you share it? Most online courses don’t have an outlet for you.
Total Cost: Free-$200
Total Time: The time it takes to watch a video

• Option 3: You could attempt to do your own study
You could go to a Bible or online bookstore and purchase several reference books, which will give you an excellent, detailed understanding of the Bible. But in order to get the same information you would get from this course, you will need to dedicate a few hours each week to study the reference materials.
Total Cost: $100
Total Time: Several hours each week

• Option 4: You could do nothing
This is always an option. And it’s the same option many people take each day. You can continue to do what you’ve been doing and enjoy the same degree of success. Time will pass but you still won’t have a good understanding of the Bible. You will still be frustrated, confused, and intimidated.

What Makes This Course Different?

• This course goes at your pace. You could complete the entire course within a few days. Or you can take your time and go through a few lessons at a time. The pace is up to you. You don’t have to sit through a quarter or semester to understand the Bible. Keep in mind – this is not an instant way to understand the Bible but it is quite fast.

• This course is dynamic. You have the opportunity to interact with the instructor and others through a private Facebook group. You can ask your questions, dialogue with other participants, and get answers that will help you. This is like a classroom but you get individualized attention.

• This course is affordable. For the same amount you would pay for a Bible institute class plus some reference books, you could learn the same content but with the added advantages of going through the lessons at your pace, having personal interaction with the instructor, and never needing to drive to a class.

• This course focuses on the dominant learning style. Studies have shown that 65 percent of the population are visual learners. However, most classes on the Bible use a combination of auditory or reading/writing. By using symbols to represent the different people, places, and events of the Bible, you can easily understand the big picture of the Bible in a short amount of time.

“I discovered that I really enjoy studying the Bible.”

“I liked the tidbits of information which helped bring the history of the Bible to life.”

When I started reading the Bible,
I would have loved a program like this!

When I got my first Bible in high school, the first book I read was the book of John and I stayed in that book for a long time because it felt comfortable and safe and I didn’t want to explore any other book. But as time progressed, I gradually read more of the New Testament. Although I tried to read the Old Testament, it felt too foreign and irrelevant.

Years later, when I was in college, I was given the responsibility of teaching the Bible to the youth in my church. I look back and cringe at the times I mistaught Scripture. If I had something like the 100 Great Events of the Bible, my understanding of the Bible would have accelerated because it would have taken all the different events of the Bible and put them into one cohesive story and I would have been able to read, live, and teach the Bible with confidence.

You don’t have to go through the frustration I went through. I’ve taken my 35+ years of studying the Bible and put them together into one course so you can understand the Bible quickly.

“This helped us to have a good overview of what the Bible is all about. Very good class for beginners or new Christians as well as older ones.”

“What I really learned was an overview of the Bible basics so now I can build on it - I feel so motivated!”

What Will This Cost?

There are 100+ videos ready to view. As I continue to add videos to the library, the price of the course will increase. The price right now is $100 but will be $125 once the full course is complete.

Here are some videos I will be adding in the coming months:

• The importance of the genealogies

• Why there are four gospels and not just one

• The significance of the 10 plagues of Egypt

• The location of the major and minor prophets

• The difference between the different Herods

The Big Question Is…Where will you be 1 to 2 years from now?

If you’ve read this far, then you know what the 100 Great Events of the Bible course can do for you. I hope you can envision the positive impact this course will have in your life.

• You’ll be able to approach the Bible with confidence, not intimidation.

• You’ll be able to understand the big picture of the Bible with clarity, not confusion.

• You’ll be able to open the Bible and dig deeper into the Word with celebration, not frustration.

Imagine where you will be a year or two from now in your understanding of the Bible. You’ll look back at this time as a pivotal point because the Bible will begin to make sense.

If you are ready to understand the big picture of the Bible, I hope you’ll join me and learn the 100 Great Events of the Bible.

“Gary did a great job bringing the Bible to life in a way that brings understanding and it wasn’t boring!”
