The Babylon Bee's How to Be a Perfect Christian: Your Comprehensive Guide to Flawless Spiritual Living brings the satirical style of The Onion into conversation with Christian culture -- and the product is hilarious.
This
book is a satirical look at what passes for cultural Christianity,
particularly in America. There's plenty of humor and sarcasm to go
around here, and I love the chart that gauges the reader's progress
toward "spiritual perfection" at the end of each chapter. What some
readers will miss, sadly, is just how much genuine Christian faith you
glimpse in these pages, even while poking fun at the sacred cows of that
cultural embodiment of the faith.
I've been a fan of The Babylon Bee's website
for a long time. This book did not disappoint. In fact, it was a real
treat! (And the free coloring page on p. 115 is totally worth the
price of the book!)
I received a free copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review here.
