And God Created Laughter by Conrad Hyers, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Recognizing "a playful spirit" as part of our human makeup, Conrad Hyers shows how laughter and humor are integral to our serious study of the Bible. He opens the joy of understanding the Bible in its fullness. With the darker realities of the Bible - sin, suffering, and death - there coexists a lighter side - laughter, humor, and playfulness. Competent biblical study requires both perspectives. This highly readable, preachable, and teachable work gives ministers, students, lay readers a valuable tool for recovering the spirit and offers a chance to share in the celebration of life and the divine comedy of faith, hope, and love. | And God Created Laughter by Conrad Hyers, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
