The Author
This visionary project came from the Lord’s heart and was revealed to GMP president and founder in 1998, and since then he has been working on it, step by step, with God’s mentoring.
To whom and what
More than storage of religious antiques or far beyond exhibit halls with selected art expressions, wax figures or animatronics, The Bible Museum ‘Didasko’ pursues teaching the non-church people, sharing with them the Lord’s message of salvation, grace, healing, and restoration through Jesus Christ.
How
In a none religious format, without academic or cultural limitations, the project’s museography will use ethical principles and values taken from the Bible, carefully chosen and related to common, daily situations, to bring light and God’s healing into pathological behaviors of children, youth, and seniors. This will help people make life decisions according to God’s guidance in their lives… The most profound mysteries of God’s word make them simple and understandable.
Why now—how long
Drastically increasing Bible illiteracy, homosexuality movement advance, and post-modernism and secular humanism into public schools’ educational programs, geo-political oil-interdependence and interfaith (Chryslam) among others, set the appropriate “momentum” for God’s response.
Although the Master Plan is ready, the planning process of workshop drawings, detail designs, programs, and other strategic items will take several months; therefore, a conservative estimation could be 12-18 months. A good estimate about the total investment can be reached in 60 days, depending on the program of needs.
Prototype
In Texas, Guatemala, Africa or Middle East, the Bible Museum ‘Disdasko’ could be a powerful tool to reach multiethnic and multicultural audiences.
Using the five senses (multisensorial), combining a sort of recreational and artistic activities, the Holly Spirit will increase the quality and quantity of Bible educational memories for God’s glory.
