DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Combining real Bible verses with whimsical original illustrations, Awkward Moments uses humor to encourage people from all walks of life to think about the Bibles on their shelves, perhaps for the first time.Let's be honest - there are some things in the Good Book that are just... awkward! There are verses we'd like to forget or that have been changed throughout the centuries. There are many verses you've never heard before in church, let alone seen in your average children's Bible! Not to mention the verses that have been added over the centuries!Most people were raised in the faith chosen by their family. Young kids learned a few Bible stories taken out of context and accepted them without question. After decades of repetition and tradition, it's understandable that we might put our beliefs on auto-pilot and just nod as a pastor repeats the verses and ideas that are already familiar and comfortable to us. It's no wonder that recent studies show an incredible lack of Biblical knowledge among Christians - 55% unable to even name the four Gospels of the New Testament - the very foundation of Christianity!Our goal? To get people to really read their Bibles and think for themselves. We hope these illustrations and commentaries will encourage readers to ask some important questions - for themselves, for their children, for their culture, and for their society. If we get a good laugh out of our readers in the mean time - it's a bonus!
