Jack Bauer's Having a Bad Day is an "investigation" into those spiritual truths to be found in season one. The chapters are divided into 24 "faith truths" ranging from issues of trust, dependence, and integrity. Most chapters begin with a snippet from the 24 plot line before exploring the spiritual implications. At the back of the book is a reader's guide with 5 study questions per chapter for personal or group use.
While not every "faith truth" discussed in the book is obviously present in the plot line, each one bears important insight for Christian living. Tim Wesemann mixes personal stories and skillful writing with a keen perception for spiritual wisdom. Jack Bauer's Having a Bad Day is a witty, fun, and meaningful book that helps to make one of America's favorite shows more edifying.
The chapters correspond with an 'hour' so I've been reading a chapter each night. Don't miss it -- for in reality, your life really does depend upon how you respond!
