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 its intermin
able passages of poetry, genealogy, and law, every book of the Bible is condense
d down to its core message, in no more than a few pages each. Written by Mark Ru
ssell with cartoons by New Yorker cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, God Is Disappointe
d in You is a frequently hilarious, often shocking, but always accurate retellin
g of the Bible, including the parts selectively left out by Sunday School teache
rs and church sermons. Irreverent yet faithful, this book is a must-read for any
one who wants to see past the fog of religious agendas and cultural debates to d
iscover what the Bible really says.
