The Bible Out of the Pew

“David von Schlichten brings humor, kindness, and good sense, along with a thorough understanding of theology and the Bible, to The Bible Out of the Pew. Yes, it's useful for an introductory ‘Bible as Literature’ class, and yes, it's instructive for those who haven't studied the Good Book and are curious. But it's also thought-provoking to longtime Christians who want a deeper, less biased look at Scripture. Von Schlichten is funny and humble in addition to being quite learned, making the book a pleasure to read. It's easy to follow, with short chapters clearly laid out for the attention-challenged among us. Highly recommended.”
