Pastor's Reading Recommedations
The Year of Living Biblically
One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible As Literally as Possible
By A. J. Jacobs
With an absolutely hilarious and seriously spiritual work, A. J. Jacobs has written a book that will elicit a myriad of emotions from the reader. From laughing to crying you’ll turn every page not knowing what will happen next in the life of A. J. Jacobs. More importantly, you’ll turn every page not knowing what will happen to you! I absolutely loved the adventure! - (Pastor Tim)
Excerpt - As for my spiritual life, the word that comes to mind is disconnected. I’ve been playing the role of the Bible Man for a month, but that’s what it still feels like: a role. A character. Like the time at summer camp when I was twelve, and, for reasons I no longer remember, I adopted a deep Southern accent – a real Foghorn Leghorn twang – and spoke it exclusively for a month” – pg. 41.
Back Cover - "The Year of Living Biblically is an extremely compelling book, appropriately irreverent and highly entertaining. More significantly, it is a tale of an intense and intelligent spiritual search that will speak powerfully and instructively to a generation of seekers” – (Rabbi David Ellenson, president, Hebrew Union College.)
