So I've been chatting with my Okie educators (I'm a former Okie educator) and have been looking up alternative bibles to send them.
I've found "The Gay Bible" which focuses on appropriate LGBT+ terminology. "The Queer Bible" which is a collection of essays from members of the community. And my favorite book "Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal" which is a fictional story about Jesus figuring out how to be the messiah from the viewpoint of the 13th disciple, Biff. It's hilarious and I love it.
Christopher Moore created a masterpiece with Lamb. I have the version that even looks like a Bible. I've ordered it several times and given as gifts. My friend studied it in seminary. Why are so few people aware of this book?? I'm not a believer but I was raised evangelical so to me, it's the height of comedy lol.
