“As a Kickstarter backer, I have been patiently waiting for my set to arrive. And the wait was definitely well worth it. Flipping through the pages it is easy to see that the paper, colors, and binding is all high quality. But while the formatting of the photos and text is great, the thought and intentionality of the photo placement is even better. The visuals perfectly correspond with the text in a way that is meaningful, contemplative, and beautiful. I found myself moved to tears a few times while reading about the crucifixion/resurrection and reflecting on the corresponding visuals. The photos moved me in a way that text itself cannot. I'm excited about the conversations about art and faith that Alabaster will help facilitate in the future!”
“I just received my copy of the Book of John today in mail, and I can say that it was the best Kickstarter investment I made in 2016. I can impressed and overjoyed by the quality of the product. It's as if I'm carrying a Kinfolk magazine in hands but in Bible version. I especially would recommend this as a gift to any creative soul out there, pastor or even your coworker who may not be a believer but would appreciate this aesthetics.”
“Great idea and great execution. I love them. They really highlight the beauty of the gospels. I ordered a set for myself and a set to give as graduation gifts for members of our youth group.”
“What a beautiful concept and masterfully executed. There was so much thought, intentionality, and prayer that must have gone into the creation of this Gospel set....not to mention the hard work!
I just received my set in the mail, but I foresee a lot of time in thought, prayer, and contemplation of both the Scriptures and the photos found in this Alabaster Bible project. Highly recommended for those that truly appreciate the sacred reflected in beauty!”
