Escrito con una retorica aguda y concisa y sin un lexico cristiano o terminos teologicos dificiles, Grandes necios de la Biblia apelara a una audiencia general por medio de su lectura divertida e informativa.
Repleto de referencias historicas de los tiempos biblicos y tratando de mantener la exactitud biblica, Grandes necios de la Biblia se convertira en un gran material de apoyo para los estudios biblicos de lideres, miembros o de pastores en sus sermones.

EVER DONE SOMETHING SO DUMB you’d never want to admit it, even in a “Most Embarrassing Moments” contest?
The good news is . . . you’re not alone. Even the Good Book is full of characters who make you wonder if they spent their childhood head-butting goats.
Big Dummies of the Bible brings to life 13 offbeat biblical tales of downright stupidity, including:
- Kings and priests who couldn’t keep their pants on
- The most expensive bowl of soup ever eaten
- The mean queen who became canine cuisine
- The fool who picked a fight with a hungry army
- The warrior who was putty in a pretty woman’s hands
Why read about these goofs, blunders, and slip-ups? Bestselling author Stephen M. Miller says there are at least two reasons to ponder these tales of denseness:
“For one thing,” he says, “it’s reassuring to know there are people dumber than us. And for another, we human beings learn from mistakes—whether it’s our own mistakes or the mistakes of someone else. We experience misery—vicariously or in the flesh—and we’re suddenly wiser.”
Each chapter contains a set of thought-provoking questions, challenging us to apply these biblical lessons to twenty-first-century living. With tongue firmly implanted in cheek at times, Steve makes it clear that we could be guilty—or at risk—of similar stupidity, and the often dreadful consequences.
Big Dummies of the Bible will make you cringe (and laugh) while you learn how not to be a dummy, too. You’ll wise up in a hurry.
