About Awkward Moments

Product Description How well do you know the Good Book? Written by a retired ministry leader, this book combines actual Bible verses with more than 30 whimsical original illustrations and commentaries to encourage readers (from all walks of faith) to think about how the Bible shapes our culture as Christianity continues to evolve. What began as a private online gag among interfaith friends quickly grew into a #1 Amazon Bestseller on its first day of sales - enjoyed by fundamentalist Christians and militant atheists alike! BEWARE - NOT FOR KIDS! This is definitely not your average children's Bible! If you thought the bestselling parody "Go The F**k To Sleep" was inappropriate for story-time with kids, you haven't seen anything yet! Leave it to the Bible! However, this book is not a satire, but a real look into some of the more troubling passages from both the Old Testament and the New Testament - including the words and teachings of Jesus Christ, himself! Unicorn Murders Genocidal Behavior Foreskins Fetish Review "Simply incredible. The book features beautiful/disturbing illustrations of Bible passages that no Christians want to admit are in their holy book. If you have to read a Bible, this is the one to read. It's the equivalent of learning a new language and immediately looking up all the curse words."  - Hemant Meta, The Friendly Atheist "Sign me up for volume 2 and every other volume that ever comes out." -  The American Jesus"Just like the Bible,  this book isn't actually suitable for children. But it is a funny look at ugly and absurd verses that Christians typically just gloss over or ignore." - Brain Hulk "It might take reading books like this one to jolt some Christians to the actual reading of some of the "awkward moments" of the Bible shown. [This book] helps Christians to awaken to being able to critically think and respond to the [Bible verses] raised up." - Dan Kimball, pastor and author "[The book] has proved successful at garnering the attention of Christians, many of whom were initially outraged at the Awkward Bible's depiction of the Bible and Christ. But many atheists and Christians stayed on the site and ultimately began having conversations with one another." -  The Christian Post "Entertaining and thought-provoking for Christians and non-Christians alike! Awkward Moments uses humor as an important educational tool, challenging believers and non-believers alike to really think about the Bible's contents and historical context. The book encourages readers to dig deeper into their Bibles while simultaneously making them wish they hadn't. This is much more than an irreverent gag gift - it tackles the age-old problem of Biblical ignorance in a surprisingly powerful way!" - David G. McAfee, author of "Mom, Dad, I'm an Atheist: The Guide to Coming Out as a Non-believer" "NOT FOR KIDS! The illustrations are vibrant and full of life,  mimicking that of the most revered children's books - at times tricking readers to not notice the real subtext of the image and verse. As a result,  readers may miss the subtle nuance and innuendo hidden in the images at first glance. It is the commentaries that are included with each passage that will unveil the purpose of the illustrations and challenge many readers,  bringing to light many ideas and facts that may trouble the average Christian" - Broadway World About the Author HORUS GILGAMESH was raised Catholic before being "born again" in college when he began following a calling toward full-time ministry. Early on, his efforts were focused on youth evangelism and Biblical literacy around the world. When he was on a missions trip to Africa, a fearless young boy approached, pleading, "Chakula? Maji?"- the Swahili words for "food" and "water." Unfortunately, Horus had no food or water to offer the poor child - only Bibles. A few days later, Horus met a humanitarian relief worker from Spain who shared five simple words of wisdom that would change his life for
