Zeus Was an Atheist: An Odd Retelling of the Moses Story - Paperback

by Jd Lyonhart (Author)

Before the 10 Commandments, there were questions. Join Moses as he wrestles with whether God exists, whether beauty, morality, and truth are illusions, whether Zeus and Ra are actually atheists, and how he's going to carry these two massive stone tablets down the mountain all by himself. Part novel, part philosophical debate, part mythological war of the gods, part irreverent screenplay about fighting demon-snakes--this book is the odd genre-mashup you can't quite look away from. Whether readers are religious or not, whether they love the Moses story or have never heard it before, this book will leave them hooked, challenged, inspired, and ready to hear how it all ends. Includes a study guide for individuals, groups, churches, and classrooms.
