The Life & Death of Every Apostle Explained in 6 Minutes

Ever wondered about the apostles? Here’s everything in 6 minutes.

Explore each apostle from the Bible in this compact guide. Perfect for anyone with a curiosity about historical figures, a knack for New Testament trivia, or an appreciation for artwork that's so simple it's almost good, completely misses the mark, and is, sadly, just pretty bad again.

0:38 - Simon Peter rocks
1:21 - James the Greater does his bit
1:53 - John gets all the love
2:28 - Philip asks the tough questions
2:59 - Bartholomew (Nathanael) stays true
3:15 - Matthew grabs a pen

(PS - Sorry about the 'made in Microsoft Paint' vibe. These guys lived about 2,000 years ago, and cameras and Photoshop have only been around for, like, half that time, I think.)
