Today is the official release of Genesis for Normal People: A Guide to the Most Controversial, Misunderstood, and Abused Book of the Bible. It will be available for $1.99 for a limited time, at which point it will go for it’s regular price, $4.99. Either way, quite a bargin, which brings me to my main point. As I post this at 7:00 on Monday morning, I can see that, amazingly, many of you have still not downloaded this book, even though is has... Read more

It will only be $1.99 for the first few days so be sure to pick up a copy early next week. Here is a short excerpt from the first chapter: “Genesis is an ancient story.

In 2007, A. J. Jacobs wrote the bestseller, The Year of Living Biblically: One Man’s Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible, which recounted his attempt to live according to Old Testament law for a solid year.
