Dr. Sam Wright admits it--he was born a smart aleck.

Produktbeschreibung
Dr. Sam Wright admits it--he was born a smart aleck. Even thought he has a Ph.D., has taught in the field of biblical studies, and has been a pastor for decades, Dr. Wright has spent his life asking such questions as: If God created light and called the light good, was God afraid of the dark? Is there a Mrs. God? When God gave Himself an "A" for creating the world, was that like grading his own paper? Who mucked out the stalls on the ark? Why did it take Noah so long (ten months) to open a window? Improper questions? Maybe. But God winks as Dr. Wright chuckles his way through the stories we learned at the knees of our Sunday school teachers, pastors, and Vacation Bible School leaders. In this first book, he invites readers to journey through the first 17 chapters of Genesis with a mind toward the questions most of us never think to ask. Get your tickle box ready ... this is funny stuff.

Autorenporträt
Born in Seymour, Indiana, Dr. Sam Wright served as a pastor in American Baptist churches in Indiana before becoming United Methodist Church pastor in 1994. He graduated from Palm Beach Atlantic College with a B.A. in religion and earned an M.Div. and Ph.D. from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, which included study at the Ecumenical Institute for Theological Research in Jerusalem, Israel. He has taught in seminaries, colleges, and universities in the USA and in Brazil where he lectured in Portuguese. He and his wife Yvonne have a daughter who teaches special needs children. When their son died in 2013, Dr. Wright wrote Heartbreak to Hope: Overcoming the Anguish of Grief to help others struggling with grief. Part of his recovery process has involved regaining his sense of humor.
