The volume, which also has creative surfaces suitable for note-taking and drawing, also contains hundreds of interactive, thought-provoking tasks that can be used to put what you have read into practice.
"In the Bible, there are four gospels with different approaches for four "target groups" about the life of Jesus Christ, so let's not be surprised that two thousand years later it is even more necessary to be able to bring the message of the Scriptures closer to young people active on completely different platforms in a unique and specific approach." - said Dr. regarding the publication of the volume and the significance of the collaboration.
