Again, some context for these stories: I absolutely love the Jesus Storybook Bible . I have read it to my kids and have used it countless times in a class that I teach with Cru. I love its focus and its style and its simplicity and at the same time its depth.   But the one thing I don't love about it is that there isn't enough of it.
