This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Tricia Goyer talk with authors Jack and Liz Hagler about their book series, Patrick Wigglesworth’s Bizarre Bible Adventure.

Readers will follow 10-year-old Patrick as he draws silly comics about his weird life. Just how weird is Patrick’s life? It’s so weird that Patrick gets yanked out of his room and into the Bible! In each book, Patrick meets a different Bible character who acts as a tour guide through a portion of the Bible.

In Over My Head, Patrick meets Moses, who leads him on a journey through biblical events from Genesis to Deuteronomy. In his journal, Patrick records all of his bizarre Bible adventures (BBAs for short). Most of the journal covers Patrick’s weird daily life entries with flashbacks to a relevant Bible adventure. Of course, this journal has to be kept secret, as he’s convinced everyone would think he was crazy! To be clear, Patrick’s journal does NOT tell the real Bible stories. It’s about his Bible adventures. This is not a Bible storybook but rather a creative, humorous kid adventure that also teaches preteens about the Bible.

Packed with funny illustrations for reluctant readers, this Christian graphic novel features:

• Scripture references so kids can look up the Bible stories Patrick experiences
• Laugh-out-loud humor to keep young readers hooked while they learn about the Old Testament
• Uplifting themes to help biblical values take root in children’s imaginations

As kids follow Patrick’s zany life, they’ll be inspired to dive into their own Bibles and uncover the adventure God has for them.

This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Tricia Goyer talk with author Elizabeth Laing Thompson about her new book, In Season: A 90-Day Devotional for Female Student Athletes to Build Faith, Strengthen Confidence, and Train a Growth Mindset

This devotional beautifully captures the heart of what sports can teach us, not merely about competition but about purpose, faith, and the strength of the human spirit. -- Jackie Joyner-Kersee, six-time Olympic medalist

Discover your ultimate playbook for faith and athletics with In Season, a 90-day devotional for young female athletes. With interactive features such as goal setting, progress check-ins, reflection questions, and journaling prompts, In Season offers busy athletes everything they need to prioritize their spiritual growth while balancing their sport, academics, and relationships.

No matter her athletic goals or level of play, every girl who competes in a sport faces similar joys and challenges throughout her athletic season: The excitement of competition. The sense of belonging. The pressure to win. The athletic season is a physical, emotional, and spiritual roller-coaster ride, and many girls feel so overextended and overwhelmed that they struggle to stay spiritually connected.

In Season is a 90-day devotional that will meet girls where they're at. Tailored for young female athletes, each short devotion offers a much-needed spiritual perspective as readers navigate the highs and lows of sports and life, including building friendships and teamwork, developing leadership skills, cultivating a growth mindset, and more. With Scripture-infused reflections, real-life athlete stories, and practical exercises, In Season is intentionally designed to encourage resilience, confidence, and joy both on and off the field.

In Season features:

• real-world stories and experiences from female athletes in a variety of sports, ranging from high school varsity to the pro level
• inspiring Scripture verses to offer strength and encouragement
• thought-provoking questions and action steps that readers can put into practice right away
• weekly goal-setting and check-ins to track physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being and progress

No athlete should play their season alone. In Season is the playbook girls need to thrive all season long.
