The irreverent Bible nerds who brought you the party game A Game for Good Christians, have finally followed through on their threat.promise to write a book! The Revised UNCOMMON Lectionary is here! Like A Game for Good Christians, The Revised UNCOMMON Lectionary doesn't mince words about the Bible's thoughts on "wet dreams" (Deuteronomy 23:10), "Pulling out of your sister-in-law" (Genesis 38:8-9), or "The Bible's odd silence about Necrophilia." It doesn't dance around the genocide that dominates so much the Holy Book, like "God holding your enemies' heads under the water until the bubbles stop" (Exodus 15:1-12; 19), or "A pair of she-bears mauling a class of kindergartners" (2 Kings 2:23-25). It doesn't look away from "Miriam cursed for being racist" (Numbers 12) or "Bread freshly baked with human dung" (Ezekiel 4:12). Composed with the belief that a good Christian doesn't romanticize or ignore the uncomfortable parts of the Bible, this book journeys through the liturgical year with a reading for each Sunday and the myriad holy-days (e.g. Good Friday, Ascension Day, Pentecost, etc.).

The Revised UNCOMMON Lectionary delves into the profound, comical, bizarre, and sobering moments of the Bible with the thoughtfulness of Andrew, the wit of Elijah, the impulsivity of Peter (the ADHD apostle), and the scholarship of whoever really wrote the Epistle to the Hebrews (because it wasn't Paul).
