Out of Print

My friend John Frye has written another book. This time it's fiction.

The book is titled, "Out of Print"
Here's what's it's about (from the website)

“A world with no Bible.”

Luci Dykstra sat on the edge of the bed fearfully pondering these words from the television news report. . . Professor Harold Johnson and his class of students watched the Greek words from John’s Gospel disappear from the chalk board. . . . The Vatican’s Council on Biblical Studies scrambled to create a message for the Pope to deliver to a frightened world: Why is the Word of God vanishing?

Out of Print: A Novel ignites the imagination as a mystery in which the Bible as we know it is no longer available. Fearful people, confused scholars, surprised reporters and a watching world struggle to make sense of the cataclysmic event.

  • Where is God when the Bible goes “out of print”?
  • What if the global church had no Bible?
  • What if Jews, Catholics, Orthodox and Protestants united to keep “the Story of God” alive on the planet?

In this provocative story the wonder and purpose of the Bible captures our hearts."

I'm looking forward to getting a copy of this book and reading it. John is a gifted story teller and a great scholar. In a world that often worships the Bible more than God, it's an intriguing concept for a book.
He even got Scot McKnight to write the Afterword even though Scot doesn't read fiction.
