"Simply put, author Dan Cooley's Bizarre Bible Stories and Bizarre Bible Stories 2! utilize a vernacular, contem-porary writing style intended to reach an audience of children and youth with solid Christian doctrine and practical application. The discussion questions inter-spersed throughout the text are thoughtfully designed to promote interaction between parents and their children on numerous topics of interest. Cooley's books reflect his passion for providing spiritual food to children in a manner they can easily digest. His attention to detail is evident from cover to cover." - Dr. Gene A. Getz, Author of over 50 books including The Measure of a Man " Paul urged Timothy: 'you know those from whom you learned...' These captivating biographies and stories will equip and encourage parents, youth pastors and others who want to ensure the enduring faith of youth in the church." - Daryl Busby, PhD, Dean of Canadian Baptist Seminary, Director of DMN Program, ACTS Seminaries, TWU " Finally, a book that illuminates some of the coolest, odd-est, and fantastical true stories of the Bible that, when read, young people can say, 'Wow! God really wants me to be THAT radical? THAT powerful? THAT bold?' Dan Cooley does this in the simplest and most profound way... he inspires students to read the stories in the Bible for themselves. Study it. Glean from it. And then go into the real world and live it." - Chad Barrett, Author of Journey to Freedom: The Pursuit of Authentic Fellowship Among Men " Wow! As a mother of two boys, I certainly see the need to ground our children spiritually. Dan's book is a tool to help us as parents ground our children in the Word. Dan pulls you into the Scripture and gives you a glimpse of what it was like. He encourages you to dig in God's Word and pull out God's personal message to you. There is no greater blessing than bringing God's Word to life for our children!" - Susan Weagant, Author of Essentials of the Heart
