“The Men of Genesis” by Alda Stephens is highly commended by Barbara Bamberger Scott of the US Review of Books, who highlights that “it is a powerful theme emphasized by Stephens, whose background encompasses a career in engineering and many years as a Sunday school teacher and community outreach volunteer. Her narrative is simple, spiritually centered, and enhanced by questions, small quizzes, and several colorful graphs and timelines for her readers. She introduces the Bible and its heroes as illustrative of larger concepts, demonstrating that even when someone is injured, deceived, or ridiculed, they can maintain an open relationship with God. Her message is clear and rational and would certainly be useful to teachers like herself and their young students in a religious setting. However, Jimmy, Sally, and their friends can deal with life, as they’re grounded in situations and their feelings for one another. “
