Lenten Reading. If you know that humor has a central place in the spiritual life, this is a good book to read anytime. If you know that humor does NOT have a central place in the spiritual life, this is a good book to read as Lenten penance.

This reads like a sermon (or homily), in that there is scripture, personal examples, a clear spiritual directive, and a few jokes, some of them aren’t even that bad. :) It also gets a bit preachy at times, hence the sermon format.

I found several helpful suggestions and confirmations, and it was enjoyable to listen to the author read his own work.
