The Godly (Mis)Adventures of Bosco & Cass

Learning to live like Jesus was never supposed to be this chaotic.  


Two best friends. Eight Beatitudes. One month of absolute chaos.


Bosco likes order, common sense, and staying out of trouble. His best friend Cass? Not so much.

When their school chaplain challenges them to understand the Eight Beatitudes, Cass decides that simply learning about them isn't enough. They need to live them. Literally.

What follows is a hilarious series of middle school disasters involving missing sneakers, flying lasagna, embarrassing misunderstandings, and good intentions gone spectacularly wrong.

But beneath the laughter, Bosco and Cass begin discovering something neither expected: kindness takes courage, doing what's right isn't always easy, and faith means more than following a list of rules.


Packed with laugh-out-loud moments, unforgettable friendship, and meaningful life lessons, The Godly (Mis)Adventures of Bosco & Cass makes exploring faith an adventure young readers can genuinely enjoy.
