The Shape of Scripture: Just Don't Tell Peter — the gospels retold straight, but funny. The disciples are earnest kids who never quite get it. Jesus is the exasperated straight man. Think Lamb, but it actually loves the text. One honest flag: there's one 'what the hell' in chapter 18. That's the whole profanity count. No sexual content, and the crucifixion scenes are handled gentle. It's my most giftable book. Humor gets shared.
