Why Christian Comics Matter More Than Ever

We live in a visual generation—one that may never reach for a traditional Bible on its own. But Christian comics offer a doorway into Scripture, helping kids see God’s Word as alive, connected, and deeply relevant to their lives.

For centuries, the Church has used the visual media of its age to communicate the gospel. Today, comic books serve that role—especially when they combine creativity with theological fidelity.

The Perfect Christmas Gift for Young Readers

As Christmas approaches, there’s no better time to help kids discover the beauty of God’s story. Whether you choose the SOS David comic, the Abraham series, or one of the other top picks, you’ll be placing Scripture in their hands in a format they’ll return to again and again.

Consider this your invitation to help the young people you love: See the Bible as one clear, connected narrative—and flourish in God’s truth.
