Watch this before reading — it will make every step in this post click into place.

We just released a brand new Bible video — and before you scroll past this post, we want to do something most creators never do: show you everything.

Not just the finished product. Not just the tools. We mean the entire process — the prayer, the research, the outlining, the AI prompts, the voiceover, the images, the editing, all of it — laid out step by step so that if you have ever wanted to create content that spreads the Gospel, you now have a real roadmap to follow.

"God-inspired content does not happen by accident. It happens when faithful people show up with the right tools and a willing heart."

There are steps to follow, tools to learn, and decisions to make. But here is what we know: if this mission is on your heart, these tools will help you carry it out.

The Full Step-by-Step Workflow

This is not theory. This is exactly what we did, in order, to produce the video you just watched above. Even if you have never made a video before, you can follow these steps.

1
🙏 Start With Prayer Before any tool was opened, we prayed. We asked God which topic to cover and waited for clarity. This step alone took four days. Everything else flows from this.
2
📖 Research the Topic Deeply We studied the topic — Bible passages, commentaries, stories — until it stirred something in us personally. When a topic lives in your heart, your audience will feel it.
3
📝 Build a Full 3-Page Outline We mapped out 10 sub-topics, sub-headings, related Bible stories, and supporting verses. This is the foundation everything else is built on — before any AI is involved. Need help going deeper into Bible topics? Our Complete Bible Explainer is a great starting point.
4
🤖 Ask Claude AI for 5 Thumbnail Prompts We gave Claude our topic and asked it to write 5 written descriptions of powerful images for our thumbnail. These are the concepts — not the actual images yet. Claude is free to use at claude.ai.
5
🎨 Generate Thumbnail Images With Google Whisk We took Claude's prompts into Google Whisk — a free AI image generator — and created our thumbnails. We chose our top 3 and saved them. Find it free at labs.google/fx/tools/whisk.
6
🎯 Write Your Own Hook — Do Not Use AI for This We wrote 5 hook options ourselves. The opening of your video needs to sound like YOU. We have tried letting AI write hooks — it does not quite capture the right voice for our audience. This one stays personal.
7
✍️ Ask Claude to Write the Full 40-Minute Script We gave Claude our 3-page outline and our best hook and asked it to write the complete video script. Claude handled the structure and flow — we handled the heart and the message.
8
📄 Edit the Script in Google Docs We pasted the script into Google Docs and went through it carefully — adding personal insights, removing anything generic, and making it sound like us. This is what makes the video authentic. Want richer content? Our Complete Bible and Spiritual Growth resources can deepen your knowledge before you write.
9
🎙️ Generate the Voiceover With ElevenLabs We pasted the finished script into ElevenLabs, chose a warm and natural-sounding voice, and exported the full audio file. It sounds remarkably real — far better than old text-to-speech tools. Try it at try.elevenlabs.io/DeepBibleStories (affiliate link).
10
🖼️ Ask Claude for Sentence-by-Sentence Image Prompts We went back to Claude and asked it to go through the full script section by section and write one detailed image description per section. The result is a complete visual plan for the entire video.
11
🎨 Generate All Video Images in Google Whisk We took all those image prompts back into Google Whisk and generated every visual for the video — one image per section, all cinematic and biblical in feel.
12
🎬 Edit Everything Together in CapCut We brought the voiceover audio, all the images, and background music from Epidemic Sound into CapCut and edited the full video. CapCut is free, beginner-friendly, and works on phone and computer. Get it at capcut.com.
13
📊 Ask Claude for Titles, Descriptions & Tags Before exporting, we asked Claude to generate 5 title options, 3 descriptions mentioning all resources in the script, and 30 tags for the YouTube upload. All ready to copy and paste.
14
🚀 Export & Upload to YouTube and Other Platforms We exported the final video from CapCut and uploaded it to YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest — using all the titles, descriptions, tags, and thumbnails we created throughout the process.
