Fun with the Apocrypha: Exploring the Extra Books of the Bible - Perfect for Bible Study, Christian Education & Historical Research

Similar to many of the other reviews, the book telegraphs what it's about and delivers on that pledge. Using the "look inside" feature will give a clear picture of what to expect from the book. It is a light hearted exploration into the Apocrypha using a nonstop stream of pop culture quotes, winks, and nods. The book does not take itself too seriously nor should the reader. In many places you will find a sort of controlled stream of consciousness, where Stack summarizes not only the passage but also his perspective on elements of the writing, historical context, or author. If you like his style, these will be an enjoyable trim to the breakdowns of the different books. Readers who are familiar with his podcast "365 Honest Questions About the Bible" (which I would highly recommend) will also recognize some crossover material from that peek in as well. I won't claim the book is not for everyone, but if you are looking for an easy read which will provide a novel, lighthearted introduction to the Aopcryphal books of Scripture, then you owe it to yourself to check this out.
