Download or read book Christian Jokes for the Serious Religious Folks written by GERARD ASSEY and published by Gerard Assey. This book was released on 2020-07-08 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we, God’s masterpiece, created in HIS image, think of situations as funny, unless the whole idea came from God in the first place? Many say that the nature of God is unknowable, but I'm certain of one thing at least. God Almighty does have a sense of humor. And we need to see this side of Him as well, in order to totally appreciate Him. Today, we live in a world that most times seems so overwhelming, where a good laugh and a real smile are rarely ever seen or heard. The everyday stresses of life can leave us feeling hassled, hurried, hopeless and harassed. Add to that a fragile economy during a time of threatened security, and we could be left feeling frightened, vulnerable, and totally off on the stress meter. We therefore need tools for coping, as it's easy to lose simple joy. But, maintaining a close relationship with God, who "sits in the heavens and laughs" (Ps. 2:4) will release that grace to enjoy this ‘joy and laughter’ in our lives, for in His "presence is fullness of joy" (Ps. 16:11). HE is that ‘spring of happiness’ that will enable us to overcome the pressures and trials of life. And joy helps break down those barriers allowing laughter to freely flow. Humor and laughter will not just change your day; they can change your life! It is said that young children laugh as much as 100 to 200 times a day, compared to the majority of adults that only get zero to a few daily laughs a day. Yet laughter is good not only for the body but also for the soul and Spirit. This reservoir of: Christian Jokes for the ‘Serious Religious’ Folks! is an exhaustive collection of rib-tickling, humorous jokes with the purpose being twofold: To help bring joy and laughter into our everyday lives and to help as a great preaching resource for Preachers, Ministers and Teachers of the Word, by helping to tickle any congregation's funny bone -- and grab their attention. So, given the above “license to laugh” now, just enjoy the rib-tickling pages that follow and learn to laugh and laugh and laugh, so you'll last and last and last!

Download or read book A Serrated Edge written by Douglas Wilson and published by Canon Press & Book Service. This book was released on 2003 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satire is a kind of preaching. Satire pervades Scripture. Satire treats the foibles of sinners with a less than perfect tenderness. But, if a Christian employs satire today, he is almost immediately called to account for his "unbiblical" behavior. Yet Scripture shows that the central point of some religious controversies is to give offense. When Christ was confronted with ecclesiastical obstinacy and other forms of arrogance, he showed us a godly pattern for giving offense. In every controversy, godliness and wisdom (or the lack of them) are to be determined by careful appeal to the Scriptures and not to the fact of someone having taken offense. Perhaps they ought to have taken offense, and perhaps someone ought to have endeavored to give it.

Download or read book Gordian Knots Hottentots and Elephant Amputees written by William Ivany and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-04-24 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laughter, satire, wit; the devils been using those for years to put down, brow beat, and control Christians. If you go in anyway against his agenda, you are then ridiculed by mainstream society, by the News Media, by Talk Shows, and by some very talented folk who use their God given talent to mock any and all things holy. Well, two can play at that game! Laughter? Satire? Wit? Check! Check! Check! They're all in here! And who says Christians can't have a sense of humor? Sure, they'll sing in church, pray, recite, testify; even cry, sob, and wail; but laugh? Maybe, but only if everyone else does! Hey, it's okay for Christians to learn and laugh, to laugh and learn. The Holy Spirit, here on this earth, is with us, living in us, and has a great sense of humor. He'll even get us to laugh at ourselves, which is a good thing 'cause some of us take ourselves way too seriously. On that note; got a question for you: Is it better to get mad at yourself, or to laugh at yourself? To get mad and increase stress, or to laugh and relieve it? Hey, we're human, we're gonna do the occasional stupid thing anyway, might as well laugh at it and learn from it! Oh right, THE BOOK! This is supposed to be about the book, OOPS! Yes, I confess, I do tend to wander a little off topic. I could get mad at myself for this repetitive tendency, or I could just laugh at it, learn from it, and get back on track. In this book, I've attempted to use Holy Spirit revelation (yes, the Holy Ghost is my "Ghost Writer;" and I freely admit that!), scripture, and humor to further spread the Gospel (The Good News!) of Jesus Christ. So, just in case the back cover of this book is the only part you ever read, just let me say this, JESUS LOVES YOU. HE'S PAID FOR EVERY SIN YOU'VE EVER COMMITTED, ARE COMMITTING, OR WILL COMMIT IN THE FUTURE. YOUR SIN DEBT HAS BEEN PAID IN FULL. Simple acceptance of that truth, and a belief in him, gets you salvation, redemption, righteousness, and eternal life; all that and more. The Bible in particular, and this book in part, can and will provide further revelation. Hey, if you're a Christian you should already know all that; if you're not or you don't, now you do!
Download or read book The Great Good Thing written by Andrew Klavan and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one was more surprised than Andrew Klavan when, at the age of fifty, he found himself about to be baptized. The Great Good Thing tells the soul-searching story of a man born into an age of disbelief who had to abandon everything he thought he knew in order to find his way to the truth. Best known for his hard-boiled, white-knuckle thrillers and for the movies made from them--among them True Crime and Don’t Say a Word--bestselling author and Edgar Award-winner Klavan was born in a suburban Jewish enclave outside New York City. He left the faith of his childhood behind to live most of his life as an agnostic until he found himself mulling over the hard questions that so many other believers have asked: How can I be certain in my faith? What's the truth, and how can I know it's the truth? How can you think, live, and make choices and judgments day by day if you don't know for sure? In The Great Good Thing, Klavan shares that his troubled childhood caused him to live inside the stories in his head and grow up to become an alienated young writer whose disconnection and rage devolved into depression and suicidal breakdown. In those years, Klavan fought to ignore the insistent call of God, a call glimpsed in a childhood Christmas at the home of a beloved babysitter, in a transcendent moment at his daughter's birth, and in a snippet of a baseball game broadcast that moved him from the brink of suicide. But more than anything, the call of God existed in stories--the stories Klavan loved to read and the stories he loved to write. Join Klavan as he discovers the meaning of belief, the importance of asking tough questions, and the power of sharing your story.
Download or read book The Humor of Christ written by Elton Trueblood and published by Harper San Francisco. This book was released on 1964 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Humor of Christ inspires Christians to redraw their pictures of Christ and to add a persistent biblical detail, the note of humor. Throughout the Gospels, Christ employed humor for the sake of truth and many of his teachings, when seen in this light, become brilliantly clear for the first time. Irony, satire, paradox, even laughter itself help clarify Christ's famous parables, His brief sayings, and important events in His life.
Download or read book Jesus Religion written by Jefferson Bethke and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2013-10-14 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abandon dead, dry, religious rule-keeping and embrace the promise of being truly known and deeply loved. Jefferson Bethke burst into the cultural conversation with a passionate, provocative poem titled "Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus." The 4-minute video became an overnight sensation, with 7 million YouTube views in its first 48 hours (and 23+ million in a year). Bethke's message clearly struck a chord with believers and nonbelievers alike, triggering an avalanche of responses running the gamut from encouraged to enraged. In his New York Times bestseller Jesus > Religion, Bethke unpacks similar contrasts that he drew in the poem--highlighting the difference between teeth gritting and grace, law and love, performance and peace, despair, and hope. With refreshing candor, he delves into the motivation behind his message, beginning with the unvarnished tale of his own plunge from the pinnacle of a works-based, fake-smile existence that sapped his strength and led him down a path of destructive behavior. Along the way, Bethke gives you the tools you need to: Humbly and prayerfully open your mind Understand Jesus for all that he is View the church from a brand-new perspective Bethke is quick to acknowledge that he's not a pastor or theologian, but simply an ordinary, twenty-something who cried out for a life greater than the one for which he had settled. On this journey, Bethke discovered the real Jesus, who beckoned him with love beyond the props of false religion. Praise for Jesus > Religion: "Jeff's book will make you stop and listen to a voice in your heart that may have been drowned out by the noise of religion. Listen to that voice, then follow it--right to the feet of Jesus." --Bob Goff, author of New York Times bestsellers Love Does and Everybody, Always "The book you hold in your hands is Donald Miller's Blue Like Jazz meets C. S. Lewis's Mere Christianity meets Augustine's Confessions. This book is going to awaken an entire generation to Jesus and His grace." --Derwin L. Gray, lead pastor of Transformation Church, author of Limitless Life: Breaking Free from the Labels That Hold You Back
