Make the Bible Work for You!
Ever feel a little guilty for a white lie or for borrowing something without asking first? Wondering what Jesus would have done? Now there's no need Make the Bible Work for You is an irreverent guide to justifying your bad behavior through specially chosen biblical quotations. Learn how to justify gossiping, cheating on your taxes, or sleeping with a coworker with a real biblical quotation, along with commentary from Reverend Hellenback on its effective application. If you've ever wondered how finger-wagging right-wingers get away with their week-long cocaine binges and cheap adulterous motel trysts while still being welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven, this book is for you. With more than 150 biblical quotations, this is the perfect book to assuage the guilt of even the most fallen Christian--and to get a snort from the most militant atheist. Give the gift of absolution, or keep it for yourself. You never know when you'll need a little pick-me-up after grievous sin.

What a quirky book! It is a respectful jab at the Bible that helped lighten the holidays at our house. Thanks to the author for a humorous read. We just opened to any page and 'let the discussion begin!' Thanks!

This is the funniest book I have read in AGES! I laughed nonstop while reading this--literally, page after page after page is freaking hilarious! Dave Johnston is the most talented humor writer I've read in a long time and I can't wait to find other things of his to read. I highly recommend this book for yourself, as a gift--whatever. It's super funny and a very gratifying read.
