It's got some legit books. It has a blurb from David Bentley Hart who's this great theologian and translator who's work on the Bible I read, who's translation of the New Testament I really enjoyed.

So that might be a little weird. I imagine for you, you look like the guy, you look like someone who grew up watching the office.

It took me the entirety of COVID three, three and a half years of working on it.

It's about 300 pages. I tried to make it as accessible as possible, funny with some jokes and levity and kind of really accessible metaphors and examples of what I'm talking about.

If I get hit by a bus tomorrow in case anyone ever and that's probably like three dozen people want to know what the guy who played Dwight thought about life and God and the soul and the meaning and service and love. It's all here in the book.
