Average Boy knows what a dilemma is and experiences a lot (two words) of them. Whether it’s delivering an 80-pound fruitcake to Mr. Polvado or helping his neighbor Mrs. Fox gather eggs, he’s able to figure out how to handle a broken window or getting chased by an angry rooster! As the new year begins, AB is faced with another dilemma: How to make the most of each day God gives us? But instead of making his list, AB gets distracted . . . first by the video game River Shiver and then by helping Mr. Polvado clean out his closet. When he finally sits down to work on his list of what to do, he gets frustrated, until his mom has the answer! Bob and Jesse also help a listener learn a little more about the amazing and powerful God that we serve.   Click here to see the new Average Boy book title and cover!   Click here to visit the Average Boy Store to gain access to books, devotionals, subscriptions to Clubhouse Magazine, and much more!   We'd love to hear from you!

Getting picked on in gym class is no fun, and so is getting picked last for a team. Average Boy experiences both of those things when the gym teacher has the students play a wild game called, “Crab Soccer.” At first this makes AB crabby, but then he makes a goal in a way you might expect—proving that everyone has different talents. Bob and Jesse also play a joke and questions from listeners, which leads Jesse to sharing a recent journey he took in the footsteps of the apostle Paul.   Click here to see the new Average Boy book title and cover!   Click here to visit the Average Boy Store to gain access to books, devotionals, subscriptions to Clubhouse Magazine, and much more!   We'd love to hear from you!
