Laughing at Life

Jamie Buckingham wrote: “If we truly believe God is in charge, we might as well relax and enjoy life.” Thus is the theme of this wonderful book taken directly from a message spoken to the James Robison Evangelistic Association Conference in Ft. Worth, Texas, in 1989. Jamie gets personal with fellow pastors as well as with himself saying, “It’s time for Christians to come out of the closet and admit that we are just like everybody else and laugh at ourselves just a little bit.” Jamie’s stories are funny, but they make a point. Like the parables of Jesus, each story is with purpose, and a little bit of humor. “There are some folks out there who say that Jesus didn’t laugh very much,” Jamie writes. “But they just don’t understand Jewish humor.” This book will make you laugh, and think, and perhaps allow you to enjoy life just a little more than before.
