Summary

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 interminable passages, every book of the Bible is condensed down to its core message, in no more than a few pages each.

Written by Mark Russell with cartoons by New Yorker cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, God Is Disappointed in You is a frequently hilarious, often shocking, but always accurate retelling of the Bible, including the parts selectively left out by Sunday School teachers and church sermons.

Irreverent yet faithful, this book is a must-listen for anyone who wants to see past the fog of religious agendas and cultural debates to discover what the Bible really says.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

This book was surprising in its tone in that it was both informative but also hilarious. I enjoyed listening to the book completely and even went back to re-listen to certain areas that I was unfamiliar with. I would recommend this to both the Bible enthusiasts and Bible novices because it’s always interesting to get a different point of view on something we all think we know that maybe don’t actually know that well!

Enthralling and hilarious

it's a relatively brief summary of the craziness that is the bible, but it's a lot more fun and far less tedious.
Unfortunately it is no substitute for slogging through the bible yourself, even if only to realize that all the insanity described in this summary is indeed also found in the bible and usually way worse.

very fun

this is brilliant all round. a PERFECT narrator who brings the bible to life in a more relatable now kind of which are often hilarious, poignant, and some “really?, is that in the bible?” moments too. it’s brilliantly researched, super creative and entertaining book, and it’s hilariously written. so thorough and pretty clever too. it’s really been a valuable way for me to rediscover and deepen my understanding of the bible. yay.

my number one go to audiobook to lift my vibe EVER - no shit.
