I love to laugh! It just plain feels great to laugh! When I find a book that both inspires my faith and compels my soul to laugh, I want to recommend it.
Jonathan Acuff was a keynote speaker at the church camp I attended with our youth group this past June. I found him to be an engaging speaker, so I bought one of his books “Stuff Christians Like”. This book is an easy read, when you can read through the laughter.
Acuff was raised in a different part of the Christian tradition than I. Not everything he discusses is exactly in my experience of church. However, his insightful and critical humor is full of hope and joy. At the conclusion, I celebrated his love of the church and found my own love of the church to be increased.
