  In a bold and inspiring new storybook Bible for children, Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis and Rev. Dr. Shannon Daley-Harris join a long line of sacred storytellers and question-askers. For thousands of years, people have told stories, sung songs, asked hard questions, and shared experiences to learn about God and how to live as God's people. The big message of the Bible is that God loves us and created us to love God and each other, to do justice, and to love kindness. 
   
  The Just Love Story Bible invites you into this big story. This isn't a book of answers but an invitation to ask important questions. People have always wondered about the great mysteries and, most importantly, the great questions of life. What are the best, most loving, and fairest ways to live with each other? Can we believe in something huge and mysterious and invisible like God and still have questions, doubts, and disagreements? What does it look like to be a follower of Jesus? 
   
  Through retellings of thoughtfully selected Bible stories, The Just Love Story Bible presents a way to hear how others have also had questions about God, and the answers they discovered; to have your own ideas and ponder your own experiences; and to keep on wondering.

  "Honesty is the best policy." That's Frank's motto.
  
  
  But Frank's overly frank comments tend to annoy his friends and teachers. Not even his own mother is all that fond of Frank's "tell all" attitude.
  
  
  So Frank turns to his grandpa for help. "Everyone is mad at me for being frank. I'm not sure honesty is the best policy anymore."
  
  
  "That used to happen to me, too," said Grandpa Ernest.
  
  
  A few outrageous hats, a spicy jar of relish, and some grandfatherly wisdom help Frank realize that truth is best served with more sugar and less pepper.
