Packer offers his pastoral wisdom, exploring the stories of eight imperfect people portrayed in the Bible.

"In classic Packer style, this book opens the pages of Scripture and sheds new, refreshing light on well-known stories and some not-so-well-known characters. . . . Insightful, witty, and very wise Bible teaching." -- Youthworker
