How to Be a Perfect Christian

Your Comprehensive Guide to Flawless Spiritual Living

By: The Babylon Bee

Narrated by: Cassandra Campbell, Paul Boehmer

With a biting, satirical style reminiscent of The Onion, How to Be a Perfect Christian takes a humorous look at the quirks of cultural Christianity while subtly challenging the listener to search for more than a cultural faith.

Written in the trademark style of The Babylon Bee, this book humorously satirizes cultural Christianity while peppering in subtle challenges to the listener. Through humor and sarcasm (and a handy meter to rank your "holiness" as you progress through the audiobook), listeners will be called to find a more biblical understanding of the Christian faith, all while poking fun at the quirks of the modern, American Christian community.


Includes a bonus PDF with The Holiness Tracker, a Christian Coloring Page, and a Social Media Post example

Critic reviews

“I love the Babylon Bee, whose authors are the Jonathan Swift of our era. I’m rarely sure whether to laugh or cry. The only time I wasn’t giggling in this book was when I was wincing from a well-placed poke. What makes their stuff my favorite, however, is that it never degrades into cynical. It’s clear that behind their snarky humor is something they genuinely love: the church.”
—J. D. Greear, author of Not God Enough: Why Your Small God Leads to Big Problems and Stop Asking Jesus into Your Heart: How to Know for Sure You Are Saved

“Forget love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control! Perfection is so much better than the fruit of the Spirit. And, as the Babylon Bee’s How to Be a Perfect Christian shows, it’s a lot easier too.”
—Karen Swallow Prior, author of Booked: Literature in the Soul of Me and Fierce Convictions: The Extraordinary Life of Hannah More—Poet, Reformer Abolitionist

Satire at its best makes you think

Having read Babylon Bee this book fits into that category. Satire that is expressly Christian in nature. It had me howling with delight.

made me laugh a lot

absolutely great. the satire of this book was definitely what I needed to laugh out loud!

So funny

So funny and so true… This was a great way to start the new Gregorian year. Kept us in stitches giggling.

Needs better narrators, no comedic timing

As I was listening to this book, I thought the narrators were part of the joke. they have horrendous comedic timing. After a few chapters, I realized that they were going to narrate the entire thing and I had to stop listening. I'm considering buying the actual book unless I can find a version narrated by Seth Dylan, snd Kyle Mann.

great book book by an awesome company!

awesome narration, and kept me
laughing the entire way through! it also had me looking up verses and quotes to see the actual meaning which made it that much more enjoyable!
