"Future King of Heaven" by Zachariah Hickman

In today’s episode we cover the Kingstone Bible, a retelling of old Biblical stories told in the medium of comics. This book retells the story of creation, the story of Noah, and the story of Job. In the beginning there was nothing, and then God made everything. Adam and Eve, the first man and woman, fell from grace, setting the world on a dark path. So dark, that God felt he needed to flood the earth, which is why he tells Noah to build a boat. Finally, the story of Job, a well off man who had much material wealth as well as community around him and richness of character, but one day the devil took all that away from him and he had to wrestle with how God could allow this to happen. And in the end, God speaks. Enjoy our review of our third book in our history theme, the Kingstone Bible vol 1!
