God Is Disappointed in You is for people who would like to read the Bible...if it would just cut to the chase. Stripped of its arcane language and interminable passages, every book of the Bible is condensed down to its core message, in no more than a few pages each.
Written by Mark Russell with cartoons by New Yorker cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, God Is Disappointed in You is a frequently hilarious, often shocking, but always accurate retelling of the Bible, including the parts selectively left out by Sunday School teachers and church sermons.
Irreverent yet faithful, this book is a must-listen for anyone who wants to see past the fog of religious agendas and cultural debates to discover what the Bible really says.

My only critique is that I wish the chapters were just the teensiest bit longer. It wouldn't have detracted from the purpose of the book, in my opinion, which was to summarize/explain a hugely difficult book into something manageable and understandable. I also think that the author's note, which came at the end of the book, would have been great at the beginning because it explains his intent, his misgivings, and the positive reception of the book by nuns and priests. I would maybe even recommend that readers check that part out first. Either way, this book is fantastic!!
Hilarious, irreverent, but on the money

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
My friends like laughing out loudWhat other book might you compare God Is Disappointed in You to and why?
Paul Beatty's The Sellout. Beatty's word play is untouchable and the writing styles are completely different but I think similar audiences would enjoy both.What does James Urbaniak bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Spot-on deadpan delivery.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This book doesn't solve the contradictions - but it sure gets to the heart of things.
This is something else. Religious or no, this is a fine crash course for the Bible.
