If you want to reflect on the mysteries of creation, the Fall, and redemption, you could read the great theologians: Augustine, Aquinas, Barth, Kant, Moltmann, Tillich, and the rest . . . or, you could read PageLand. If you wanted to gain a vivid overview of time, eternity, and the destiny of the human soul, you could read Thomas à Kempis, C. S. Lewis, Thomas Merton . . . or, you could read PageLand.

All kidding aside, David Hutchens and Bobby Gombert have crafted a retelling of the Grand Story that is truly incarnational, on several levels. Until you read PageLand, you won’t believe it’s possible to pack so many immense ideas into so few pages.

C. S. Lewis said, ‘If you can’t express your faith in the vernacular, either you don’t understand it, or you don’t really believe it.’ Hutchens and Gombert clearly understand and truly believe. Want to know how I can tell? . . . Just read PageLand.”

— Thom Lemmons, Author, the “Daughters of Faith” Series and Jabez: A Novel

"As a lover of books, I think PageLand is brilliantly fun—a refreshing new way to tell a wonderful old story."

— Melody Carlson, Author, Angels in the Snow, Looking for Cassandra Jane, Blood Sisters, and “Diary of a Teenage Girl” Series

“David Hutchens has written a book that is unsettling—for children certainly, not for me—and yet I had to finish it and close the pages to make sure I was still alive. I am, you know.”

— Jack Hafer, Film Producer

“In the pages of this remarkable little book, you will enter a world that exists here and nowhere else. And yet the story it tells is a story you’ve heard before, only you’ve never heard it like this. Buy two copies of this book—one to keep (you’ll want to read it more than once because it makes you smile) and one to give to a friend.

“I promise you: this book flies ‘under the radar’ and right into the heart. I’ve never read anything like it. It stands as a delightful story, well told, wonderfully illustrated, and (in case you missed it before) it makes you smile. How many books make you do that? I hope that David Hutchens and Bobby Gombert will take us back to PageLand in the future. I’d like to know what happens next.”

— Dr. Ray Pritchard, Senior Pastor, Calvary Memorial Church, Oak Park, Illinois, Author, In the Shadow of the Cross, FAQ, and When You Pray

“What an absolutely delightful book! Anyone who walks through its pages will gasp at the elegant simplicity. Anyone who takes its message to heart will discover new possibilities for relationships — and life!”

— Rubel Shelly, Preaching Minister Family of God at Woodmont Hills, Nashville, Tennessee

“PageLand is a page-turner. This is the kind of book I will give to friends and even strangers in the airport. I was bound in PageLand and then set free.”

— Greg Taylor, Author of “High Places,” Editor of NEW Wineskins Magazine

“PageLand is a wonder. It’s hard to believe that such a small volume could both delight children with a fresh, clever, and engaging story and enthrall adults with its stunning insight into the relationship between God and humankind.”

— Thomas Williams, Novelist, Coauthor with Josh McDowell of In Search of Certainty
