A disco diva king, a prophet who became a bear's lunch, a monarch with 1,000 wives to please, a bunch of rebels who were burned to a cinder ... loads of pretty barmy things happened in Bible times Andy Robb, author of the Professor Bumblebrain series, has collected together the barmiest passages of Scripture in 50 Barmiest Bible Stories. Andy's witty and conversational style, plus colourful illustrations, brings God's Word to life for children. Among the collection are the stories of how the universe kicked off; how the Israelites escaped from Egypt and spent forty years grumbling in the desert; how Jesus was God's chosen man to sort out the mess humankind had made of the world; what the good and bad kings of Israel got up to. Each story has a cliff-hanger ending and a Bible passage to look up to find out what happened next. The Bible tells us about some extraordinary events, and this book will help to introduce readers to the extraordinary God who lies behind those events.

How do I know it's God? is one of the most commonly asked questions of new and mature Christians alike, and the aim of God Conversations is to both equip and inspire the reader and show them that hearing the voice of the Spirit is accessible to everyone who chooses to follow Jesus. Most Christians know that God speaks, yet struggle with how to recognise his voice in their everyday lives. What does God's voice sound like? How do we know if what we're hearing is from God? Stories of God talking to his people abound throughout the Bible, but we usually only get the highlights. We read; "And God said to Joseph; 'Go to Egypt'," and then; "Mary and Joseph left for Egypt." We don't get a blow-by-blow description of how God spoke. We don't receive a detailed explanation of how they knew it was God, and we don't get to see what was going on inside their heads as they acted on what they'd heard. In God Conversations, international speaker and pastor Tania Harris shares insights from her own journey about hearing God's voice. You'll get to eavesdrop on some contemporary conversations with God in the light of his communication with the ancient characters of the Bible. Part memoir, part teaching, this unique and creative collection of stories will help you to recognise God's voice when he speaks and how to respond when you do.

Young readers will know and love award-winning Christian children's author and illustrator Andy Robb from books such as 50 Weirdest Bible Stories and Professor Bumblebrain's Bonkers Book on Parables. But it's Andy's Amazing Agents of God series which has inspired The God Files - a children's Bible for 7+ year olds. This colourfully presented Bible - in which each book is styled as a 'file' - will invite children into the story of Scripture by encouraging them to play their part as agents with a mission, inspired by the adventures and impact of the special agents they read about, such as Joseph, David, Esther and Mary. In addition to the Agent Profiles, the Bible features a wealth of integrated extra content to help children explore faith, learn about God and to start them off on a lifetime of Bible reading. Each book of the Bible has an introduction that informs agents of the key facts about the file, such as 'Where the action happened', and 'Agents to look out for'. In each book, there are encoded verses to decipher, jokes, 'Undercover Investigations', 'Fascinating Facts', 'Agent Essentials' and much more. The Bible also contains thirty two full-colour pages, packed with everything a young reader will need to become an agent of God - info on key agent activities, such as prayer, reading the Bible and what to expect at church (or, your 'Agent Outpost', as The God Files calls it), testimonies from famous Christians of the past and present, and notes on worship, the trinity and heaven - all vibrantly illustrated.

Ever wished there was a book about some of the weirdest and most disturbing stories in the Bible that was also hilarious to read? You've found it. It turns out, there's a lot of strange stuff in the Bible, and this book takes a tongue-in-cheek look at all of it. Approximately 80 percent of Americans admit they haven't read the Bible. If they did, they'd be pleasantly surprised by its impressive quantity of sex and poop jokes. David danced naked. Noah was basically a moonshining hillbilly. Ezekiel baked poop bread. Herod was eaten by worms. Jesus cursed a fig tree, just to prove he could. Mark went streaking. Hosea married a prostitute. Lot was date-raped by his own daughters. This unique book: Combines humor and education to give better insight into some of the strangest parts of the Bible Organized by topic (poop, genitalia, weird violence, prostitution, gratuitous nudity, seemingly pointless miracles, and other fun stuff) Is a thoroughly researched (really!), reverent, and insightful look at the best-selling book in history Makes a perfect gift for pastors and white elephant parties From Elisha, who loosed homicidal bears on some kids because they called him bald (it's a long story), to the story of Ehud, who gets away with assassinating a tyrannical king because his servants think said king is taking a dump (also a long story), this book examines and casts new light on some of the Bible's stranger moments.
