Bamboozled By Jesus Synopsis from Worthy Publishing:
Thriving stand-up comic and actress Yvonne Orjiābest known as Issa Rae’s BFF on the HBO series,Ā Insecureāshares the secrets to living the life of your dreams.
Yvonne Orji has never shied away from being unapologetically herself, and that includes being outspoken about her faith. Known for interpreting Biblical stories and metaphors to fit current times, her humorous and accessible approach to faith leaves even non-believers inspired and wanting more.
The way Yvonne sees it, God is a Sovereign Prankster, punking folks long before Ashton Kutcher made it cool. When she meditates on her own lifeācomplete with unforeseen blessings and unanticipated roadblocksāshe realizes itās one big testimony to how God tricked her into living out her wildest dreams. And she wants us to join in on getting bamboozled. This is not a Self-Help bookāitās a Get Yours book!
InĀ Bamboozled by Jesus, a frank and fresh advice book, Orji takes readers on a journey through twenty-five life lessons, gleaned from her own experiences and her favorite source of inspiration: the Bible. But this aināt your mamaās Bible study. Yvonne infuses wit and heart in sharing pointers like why the way up is sometimes down, and how fear is synonymous to food poisoning. Her joyful, confident approach to God will inspire everyone to catapult themselves out of the mundane and into the magnificent.
With bold authenticity and practical relatability, Orji is exactly the kind of cultural leader we need in these chaotic times. And her journey through beingĀ Bamboozled by JesusĀ paints a powerful picture of what it means to say āyesā to a life you never couldāve imaginedāif it wasnāt your own.
