The Bible is now on TikTok, vlog-style.
Picture David—yes, that David, of Goliath fame—with an iPhone and influencer energy. “Asked the guy to film it, but guess what? The camera froze,” a wide-eyed David says to the camera. “Threw one rock, dude dropped, no proof. Love that for me.” He then urges his followers to like and comment.
Curious about Goliath’s side of the story? “Morning people, day 40 of standing out here. Still no challenger,” he reports, camera propped up. He dunks his face into a bowl of ice water, channeling influencer Ashton Hall’s viral morning routine. Later, mid-fight, he pauses just long enough to update his audience: “Okay, the kid actually knocked me down. What is happening right now? This better not be my last vlog.”
The “hey guys” intros, the dramatic camera angles: It’s AI-generated Biblical figures styled like your favorite YouTubers or TikTokers. Daniel vlogs from the lion’s den. Jonah records from the belly of the whale. “Guys, the sea literally opened up. . . . I’ll explain later,” Moses tells the camera. “And no, this path isn’t on Google Maps.” In family-vlog fashion, Mary announces her baby’s arrival, complete with PR gifts: “Baby’s first collab? We’ll unbox later.”
The creator behind the viral account, @holyvlogsz, began posting just last month but has already racked up more than 435,000 followers and millions of views. His AI-generated content uses Veo 3—Google’s newest video generator, according to the hashtags—which has startled the internet with its realism. Unlike earlier tools, Google DeepMind’s Veo 3 enables dialogue, accurate lip-synching, and sound effects. The result is alarmingly lifelike.
No one (hopefully) is mistaking them for the real thing. Still, for what some might call AI slop, these Bible story vlogs are oddly captivating. As one commenter put it: “Hate how much I like this.”
