So in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.
— Romans 12: 5-8

This video, titled "The Bible in 90 Seconds," is a piece for "The Grand Narrative" film series and book trilogy, which aims to tell the story of Scripture with biblical accuracy and theological depth. It features the song "Every Good & Perfect Thing" by Childlike, with lyrics that describe good and beautiful things as glimpses of a divine presence. The song mentions finding this presence in a child's laughter, a lover's eyes, healers' hands, the strength of wine, a soldier's courage, the hope of nations, and the words of the wise.
