In Crazy Book, the authors of Crazy Talk once again unleash their passion, faith, and humor. Here, they've elected to focus on major people, events, places, books, and types of literature in the Bible communicating the life-giving truth of the Bible via often knock-em-dead humor.
The Bible can be hard to understand. To many of us, it often does seem like a crazy book. But, according to the authors of Crazy Book, the crazy book we call the Bible actually teaches us the sanity that we need. The sanity that lets us know who God is, who we are in light of God's love, and where God's love can be found and experienced.
