About this audiobook
The new $500 million Museum of the Bible is filled with thousands of texts and artifacts, immersive exhibitions of bible stories, even an amusement park-like area for children. According to those behind the new private institution, the focus is not on proselytizing or presenting religious doctrine, but to raise public awareness of the centrality of bible in history and culture. Jeffrey Brown takes a look.
