How Can REAL BAD GUYS
Become GOOD?
Meet Millie—an average kid who encounters a rogue’s gallery of some of the biggest, baddest, hairiest, scariest villains you’ve ever seen. This motley crew is the worst of the worst, and yet, in God’s eyes, is Millie just as bad as them? And if so, what can she do about it?
In Real Bad Guys, critically acclaimed singer and pastor Jimmy Needham explains the complex problem of sin in a way that’s accessible, understandable, and fun for middle-grade readers. Best yet, the book provides a clear solution to the problem by identifying Jesus as the only REAL GOOD GUY who can redeem us in God’s eyes.
This vibrantly illustrated book teaches foundational biblical truths with humor and heart.
