God Is Disappointed in You is for people who would like to read the Bible...if it would just cut to the chase. Stripped of its arcane language and interminable passages, every book of the Bible is condensed down to its core message, in no more than a few pages each.
Written by Mark Russell with cartoons by New Yorker cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, God Is Disappointed in You is a frequently hilarious, often shocking, but always accurate retelling of the Bible.
Imagine the Bible as a snarky best friend who's not afraid to tell it like it is, complete with witty commentary and cartoons. From God's rocky relationship with the Jews to Jesus explaining metaphors to clueless disciples, this book condenses each biblical tale into its essence. Whether you're a Bible buff or a complete novice, you'll find yourself enjoying the reimagined stories of familiar characters and discovering shocking bits that Sunday school conveniently left out. So, if you've ever wanted to read the Bible but couldn't get past all the "thou shalts" and endless genealogies, this is your chance to finally understand what all the fuss is about – in the most entertaining way possible! |
