There are places where your folks will laugh out loud, and others where they will squirm with conviction.
There are countless fascinating and humorous examples from church history (wait until you read about the “music of the spheres”!), living life (a billionaire, a dog, a ’58 Corvette), science (the Higgs boson, the Uncertainty Principle) and even the movies and science fiction. The goal is to help the reader to truly grasp elements of the faith in ways that are captivating and easy to recall. The theology is solid but accessible.

- This is a BIG book: As exciting and captivating as the content will be, your folks will know they are entering an adventure of substance. The book is 7.4 x 9.7 inches, 376 very full pages, 24 deep chapters plus the Glossary, Bibliography and Index.
