The Dunham Bible Museum at Houston Christian University was recently featured on "The World and Everything in It," a nationally syndicated news podcast from WORLD Radio. The episode, part of the program's "Destinations" series, spotlighted the museum's extensive bible collection and its unique contribution to preserving the history of the English Bible.

WORLD Radio reporter Todd Vician toured the museum with director Dr. Diana Severance, who shared stories behind some of the museum's rarest and most remarkable pieces-including a 12th-century Paris Bible, a page from the 14th-century Wycliffe Bible, and a microfilm Bible that traveled to the moon aboard Apollo 14.

During the episode, Dr. Severance shared how the museum's collection-now numbering over 8,000 volumes-traces the Bible's journey from medieval manuscripts to modern translations.

The podcast highlights the museum's mission to educate visitors about the Bible's historical, cultural and spiritual impact. From colonial America's first English-language Bible to the Scripture that reached the lunar surface, the Dunham Bible Museum continues to inspire curiosity and reverence for the world's most influential book.

"The Dunham Bible Museum has 250 Bibles-or pages from Bibles-on permanent display. It is a vivid testimony to how the Bible has been burnt, banned, and blasphemed, but never destroyed," said Vician.

"It has been read by more people, and its words have changed more lives, than any other book in-and out of-this word."
