The project began as a website in October 2001 that featured six stories from the Book of Genesis, and is completely unaffiliated with the Lego company.[2] There is also a Brick Bible book series.[3]
Throughout stories are retold using passages from the Bible, with chapter and verse cited, the wording being a free adaptation that Spurling says is based on a number of public domain Bible translations.[4] Occasionally, mostly when images are being used to contrast with the underlying scripture, Spurling dramatizes the images with additional text. Such text is displayed in gray instead of the usual black.
