Are you looking for fiction books inspired by the Bible? Me too! I love reading Bible-retelling novels, and if you or your teens do too, you might just find something you like in the list below. Take a look and add these Bible story-inspired novels to your TBR (to be read) list. So far I’ve found books that loosly follow and reimagine the following Bible stories: Joseph and the coat of many colors, Queen Esther, the book of Ruth, and David and the lion’s den. Which other stories would you like to see represented?
My goal is to find more fiction titles to add to my list, so let me know if you have suggestions. Drop those in the comments below, or keep scrolling to see my suggestions for bible retelling young adult novels.
