The Bible has its share of sensational literature, and this book's modern retelling of fifteen earthy narratives from scripture is definitely not for the squeamish. But adventuresome readers will find that these curious tales will stir the blood while evoking laughter and tears. With themes such as grace, forgiveness, and redemption set against the background of rebellion, drunkenness, sexual infidelity, and even bloody revenge, these two-fisted, no-holds-barred Bible stories - sometimes with amusing punch lines - are a great tool for teaching deep truths about humanity, the world, and God. This book is suitable for personal reflection or small group study, though not for the faint of heart.
