“In a thoughtful and artistic way, Debby allows us to hear the words of this mysterious book in a fresh way. This video, like the book of Revelation itself, carries with it its own blessing.”
— John Ortberg, author and teaching pastor, Menlo Park Presbyterian

“It is difficult to express the beauty of what Topliff has created. When viewed on the whole her painting is stunning, though simple in execution. It is as though the Spirit of God has anointed her work, and the glory shines through the painting, rather than drawing its aesthetic appeal through technical merit. Her verbal tour through her work is certain but never strident, both authentically honest and loving. While the reality of eternal punishment is never hidden, Topliff draws viewers into the recognition of the safety, joy, and eternal love that is found within the promise of Revelation for those who follow Jesus.

The message of Painting Revelation is one that reaches viewers no matter their age. In one chair our 3-year-old was as equally captivated as her 43-year-old father. Topliff’s delivery is always calm and reassuring so that even the most graphic events described in Revelation, when illustrated by simple figures with little detail, never created a sense of fear or alarm in our young ones. As easily as small viewers receive this orientation to Revelation, older individuals can dig in deep with the extensive study resources provided on the DVD-ROM for use on personal computers.”

“Topliff is a delight to listen to. She retells the story in Revelation using her very simple but beautiful paintings and the sound effects really compliment what is being told. She uses explanations from scholars but it’s done in a very simple and natural way and is easy to follow.  I liked it too that she herself wasn’t overgroomed or too ‘glossy’, but comes across as very natural and unassuming. It makes it easier to focus on what she says and demonstrates through her works of art.

The DVD has 5 sections - and each can be watched independently.  She does quote scripture but most of the script is a re-telling of the story and linking it with other sections of the Bible, which is great. I believe that this DVD is a really useful aid to getting into Revelation, which is - for so many - a very difficult book to understand, and which sadly is often skipped over.”

The idea in studying American history is not just to do the assignments or memorize facts, but to actually learn, understand and be able to explain history, and to be able to do so for the rest of one’s life.  In other words, the unique and dynamic history of the American people can and should become a permanent part of who we are.

Fabulous Facts offers 179 colorful and interactive slides that utilize multiple iconic pictures of America’s past with narrative explanations of concepts, events and persons that collectively explain the course of our nation’s history.  This program is organized in a unique way, calculated to provide students with a clear and permanent comprehension of what it means to be an American.  Additionally, Fabulous Facts will effectively help to prepare students for both AP US History and CLEP testing.

“I think FabulousFacts works because it is fun and interesting at the same time…it’s amazing how much you remember!”   Lauren, 2008
