Many Are Called but Most Leave Their Phone Off the Hook: Exploring the Serious, Curious, and Hilarious Sides of Church

by Doug Peterson, Dan Pegoda (Illustrator)

A collection of inspirational stories of building a church that combines humor, serious stories, parables, anecdotes, sermons, believe-it-or-not facts, and even a bit of Dr. Seuss-style poetry. It shows how good it is for God's people to laugh, or in the immortal words of G.K. Chesterton, "The angels can fly because they take themselves lightly". Zany photographs and cartoons. In these pages you will meet the members of the First Church of Especially Swell People, Reformed - a fictional church were Sunday attendance is tallied by the National Association of People Who Count by Twos. You will never fing your own church boring again!
