For those new to church life, the Bible is often an imposing and overwhelming book with tales of pregnant virgins, large fish, unbelievable miracles, and challenging stretches of the imagination. Many who are rediscovering Jesus and his church have been culturally schooled to leave biblical story behind along with nursery tales such as Paul Bunyan and Pecos Bill. It becomes a daunting task for the newcomer to make sense of biblical narrative and convey what the story is attempting to do in and through the careful novice interpreter. This book was written to assist all newcomers in their emerging faith encounter with the Bible, and for others who seek to read old stories of the church from a new perspective.

03/11/2008: Frank Honeycutt's new book is both humorous and solidly intellectual. The author is not one to shy away from the Bible's complexities and contradictions, making his insights all the more illuminating.
