I think what is helpful is visual Bibles, where there are images or videos explaining the text.
Write "visual Bible" in a search engine and you'll find many interesting Bible projects for kids on the spectrum. |

| Any churches that made you felt like you mattered? They say adults on the spectrum are the least churched demographic (at least those who are higher functioning).
