Founder's Journey | Scripture Alive Ministry

Jeremy Kluth

Jeremy Kluth is the founder of Scripture Alive,
a ministry that empowers people to experience, remember, and live out God's Word.

His one-man, word-for-word Scripture dramatizations invite audiences to encounter the Bible in a way that is faithful, immersive, and unforgettable. His repertoire spans full books like Daniel and John's Gospel; vivid portrayals of characters such as Elijah, Peter, and Paul; and sweeping narratives including The Advent Story, The Bible Unveiled, and his One-Man Passion Play.

Jeremy presents God's Word live at churches, camps, chapels, and conferences both nationally and internationally. He also leads Bible memory workshops to equip people to memorize Scripture for themselves and offers guest speaking to inspire believers to be fruitful doers of the Word.

He holds a BA from Moody Bible Institute and is the author of Power to Remember: Scripture Memory That Works. This book captures his passion for helping others embrace Scripture memory as a transformational spiritual discipline--one that draws people closer to Christ and deeper into His Word.

Character Memorization (Interviewed by
Founder of Bible Memory Goal)

For many people who pursue extended Scripture memory, the goal is often to memorize an entire book of the Bible, a collection of epistles, or even the full New Testament (like Josh Summers, founder of BibleMemoryGoal.com, who aims to complete the New Testament by age 40 — a fantastic resource worth checking out).

Jeremy’s journey began a little differently. With a background in theater and a love for character acting (his favorite high school role was playing the fiery Tybalt in Romeo & Juliet), he was originally drawn to bringing Bible characters to life. What captivated him most wasn’t just portraying personalities like Elijah or Paul — it was learning from their failures and faith, understanding their motivations, and watching how God used them for His purposes. These stories are not just ancient history — they are mirrors that challenge, inspire, and transform.

But as Scripture Alive developed, so did his vision. Jeremy began to see the power not just in portraying individuals, but in proclaiming story-driven books of the Bible and sweeping narratives that reveal the full arc of redemption. What began with characters grew into a broader mission: to make God’s Word unforgettable through dramatizations that span Books, Characters, and Narratives — all performed word-for-word from Scripture.

To mark this season of growth and discipline, Jeremy set a personal goal: to memorize and perform ten of the Bible’s most compelling books, characters, and narratives by the time he turns 30. To qualify, each piece must meet two key criteria:

1) It contains at least 125 verses or 25 minutes of performance material — long enough for a stand-alone dramatization.

2) The content is primarily narrative (rather than poetic or prophetic), to allow for true dramatic storytelling.

With that framework, his performance repertoire includes:

1) One-Man Passion Play (completed Spring '21)
2) Peter (completed Fall '21)
3) Daniel (completed Winter '22)
4) Elijah (completed Spring '22)
5) Paul (completed Summer '22)
6) The Bible Unveiled (completed Summer '23)
7) The Advent Story (completed Winter '23),
8) John's Gospel (completed Spring '25),
9) Exodus (goal: Summer '26),
10) David (goal: Fall '26).

Each performance is crafted not only to bring Scripture to life but to invite others to step into the story, reflect on God’s character, and respond with deeper obedience and awe. Because if God could use and transform flawed, ordinary people then — He can do the same with us now.
