Description
The Gospel According to Dr. Seuss is a book that explores the parallels between the stories of beloved children's author Dr. Seuss and lessons found in Scripture. The author, James Kemp, sees Dr. Seuss as his favorite theologian and finds inspiration and wisdom in his imaginative and entertaining stories. Through this book, readers can gain a deeper understanding and relevance of Bible passages through the lens of Dr. Seuss's stories.
The stories of one of the world's most beloved children's authors are both imaginative and entertaining. But a closer look at Dr. Seuss's stories reveals that many are inspirational as well as instructive. James Kemp has identified as his favorite theologian not Barth or Pannenberg, but the inimitable Dr. Seuss. In this readily accessible resource, Kemp finds parallels between the actions of cats in hats, Grinches, Snitches, Sneetches, and other Creachas and lessons found in Scripture. Thus, as the author shares his enthusiasm for the creativity and wisdom of Dr. Seuss, both the meaning and the relevance of many Bible passages come to life.
